The subtype IIA, however, may demonstrate progressive hearing loss not found in the other Type II expressions. These children may eventually need a cochlear implant as their hearing loss progresses. [audiologyonline.com]

One significant cause of progressive hearing loss is the congenital enlargement of the cochlear aqueducts. This condition is referred to as large vestibular aqueduct (LVA) syndrome, also known as enlarged or dilated vestibular aqueduct syndrome. [asha.org]

These signs can be interpreted as being caused by release from contralateral inhibition. 13 In one other family linked to DFNA9, fluctuating hearing loss was documented. 5 In the same family, some patients reported periodic vertigo, sometimes with nausea [doi.org]

LVA is generally bilateral and almost always leads to some degree of progressive or fluctuating hearing loss. Hearing loss is often reported following head injury (Smith & Van Camp, 2006). [asha.org]

LVAS is typically bilateral and almost always leads to some degree of progressive or fluctuating hearing loss. Although LVAS is a congenital condition, hearing loss may not be present from birth. [dallashear.com]

Their vestibular loss arises from an acidophilic mucopolysaccharide deposit, identified in the cochlea and macula, that causes strangulation of the nerve endings (Huygen et al. 1989, 1991 ; Verhagen et al. 2000 ; Cremers et al., 2005 ; Robertson et al [physreports.physiology.org]

These areas correspond with areas in the chicken inner ear that show high levels of COCH expression. 11 It was suggested that the mucopolysaccharide deposit could cause strangulation of nerve endings. 3 Such strangulation might result in aberrant stimulation [doi.org]

This suggests an important specific role for this domain in the functioning of COCH in the inner ear. [nature.com]
