Syndrome and Deafness (II)

Syndrome with Congenital Skeletal Anomalies and Deafness

Abstract

Four congenital syndromes of skeletal anomalies associated with deafness were described in this paper.
Klippel-Feil's syndrome and Goldehar's syndrome were congenital diseases which showed cervical deformities and occasionally associated with hearing impairment. Deafness in these two syndromes were not only conductive but also sensorineural hearing loss in type.
Fanconi's anemia syndrome and Madelung's deformity were the diseases which manifested congenital abnormalities on arm or finger. Deafness in these two syndromes were conductive type in most instances.
