Background: Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disease. In some populations, c.365delG mutation in the GJB2 gene represents the most frequent cause of hereditary SNHL. The great diversity of mutations in the GJB2 gene worldwide highlights the participatio...
