•Concept ID:
C1832425
•
Disease or Syndrome
Autosomal dominant deafness-9 (DFNA9) is an adult-onset form of progressive sensorineural hearing loss associated with variable vestibular dysfunction (summary by Robertson et al., 2006).

Autosomal recessive cerebellar ataxia-blindness-deafness syndrome
MedGen UID:
338611
•Concept ID:
C1849094
•
Disease or Syndrome
A rare autosomal recessive syndromic cerebellar ataxia with the association of early-onset cerebellar ataxia, hearing loss and blindness. Patients may also present demyelinating peripheral motor neuropathy. Cerebral MRI shows alterations of the cerebellar white matter without cerebellar atrophy.
