Alone or in combination with environmental factors, heredity is at the root of most cases of hearing impairment. Thanks in large part to positional cloning techniques,

scientists have identified nearly 100 genes and loci implicated in hearing loss since 1995 - an extraordinarily rapid rate of gene mapping success. This text branches into syndromic and nonsyndromic categorical directions as a comprehensive report on this accumulated wealth of genetic discoveries.
