SLC26A4-related sensorineural hearing loss (SLC26A4-SNHL), characterized by inner ear malformations also associated with vestibular dysfunction, comprises two phenotypes: (1) nonsyndromic SLC26A4-SNHL (also referred to as DFNB4 or nonsyndromic enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct [NSEVA]) and (2) Pendred syndrome (PDS) that includes thyroid involvement (typically identified more frequently in countries without universal salt iodization programs). The time of onset and type of presentation of the SNHL vary (such that some newborns pass their newborn hearing screening); however, by age three years most children have bilateral and severe-to-profound hearing loss. Manifestations of vestibular dysfunction (such as head-tilting, vomiting, and/or delayed ambulation or clumsiness in a child who previously walked well) can precede or accompany the fluctuations in hearing typical of this disorder. Thyroid enlargement (goiter) occurs gradually and is typically evident in the second decade, especially if iodine is not routinely included in the diet.
Vertebral, cardiac, renal, and limb defects syndrome 1- MedGen UID:

- Disease or Syndrome
Congenital NAD deficiency disorder (CNDD) is a multisystem condition in which cardiac, renal, vertebral, and limb anomalies are common, mimicking the clinical features described in VACTERL association. Congenital heart defects can include left-sided heart lesions, right-sided heart lesions, or both. Almost all surviving individuals have short stature, many with disproportionately shortened limbs. Vertebral anomalies, including hemivertebrae and vertebral fusion, occur frequently, often with rib anomalies. Renal anomalies may be severe, including dysplasia/hypoplasia and renal agenesis. Developmental delay / intellectual disability has been reported in more than half of affected individuals, although some affected individuals have had normal development, and some individuals succumbed to their congenital anomalies before developmental assessment could be performed. Other less common features may include cleft palate, eye anomalies, sensorineural hearing loss, tracheoesophageal fistula, polysplenia, anteriorly displaced anus, tethered spinal cord, cystic hygroma, epilepsy, hypothyroidism, and hypoparathyroidism.
Branchiootorenal syndrome 1- MedGen UID:

- Disease or Syndrome
Branchiootorenal spectrum disorder (BORSD) is characterized by malformations of the outer, middle, and inner ear associated with conductive, sensorineural, or mixed hearing impairment, branchial fistulae and cysts, and renal malformations ranging from mild renal hypoplasia to bilateral renal agenesis. Some individuals progress to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) later in life. Extreme variability can be observed in the presence, severity, and type of branchial arch, otologic, audiologic, and renal abnormality from right side to left side in an affected individual and also among individuals in the same family.

- Disease or Syndrome
The Meier-Gorlin syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by severe intrauterine and postnatal growth retardation, microcephaly, bilateral microtia, and aplasia or hypoplasia of the patellae (summary by Shalev and Hall, 2003). While almost all cases have primordial dwarfism with substantial prenatal and postnatal growth retardation, not all cases have microcephaly, and microtia and absent/hypoplastic patella are absent in some. Despite the presence of microcephaly, intellect is usually normal (Bicknell et al., 2011).
Genetic Heterogeneity of Meier-Gorlin Syndrome
Most forms of Meier-Gorlin syndrome are autosomal recessive disorders, including Meier-Gorlin syndrome-1; Meier-Gorlin syndrome-2 (613800), caused by mutation in the ORC4 gene (603056) on chromosome 2q23; Meier-Gorlin syndrome-3 (613803), caused by mutation in the ORC6 gene (607213) on chromosome 16q11; Meier-Gorlin syndrome-4 (613804), caused by mutation in the CDT1 gene (605525) on chromosome 16q24; Meier-Gorlin syndrome-5 (613805), caused by mutation in the CDC6 gene (602627) on chromosome 17q21; Meier-Gorlin syndrome-7 (617063), caused by mutation in the CDC45L gene (603465) on chromosome 22q11; and Meier-Gorlin syndrome-8 (617564), caused by mutation in the MCM5 gene (602696) on chromosome 22q12.
An autosomal dominant form of the disorder, Meier-Gorlin syndrome-6 (616835), is caused by mutation in the GMNN gene (602842) on chromosome 6p22.

Autosomal dominant deafness-87 (DFNA87) is characterized by nonsyndromic prelingual profound sensorineural hearing loss with inner ear anomalies, including cochlear maldevelopment, absence of the osseous spiral lamina, and/or an enlarged vestibular aqueduct (Su et al., 2020).
