TECTA mutations were identified in 6.0% of MFSNHL. These mutations were more frequent in patients with shallow U-shaped audiograms than those with U-shaped audiograms, and in families which have the family histories compatible with autosomal dominant than those with the family histories compatible with sporadic or autosomal recessive.
