Branchiootic syndrome

The existance odf a separate entity Branchiootic syndrome (BOS) separate from Branchiootorenal syndrome (BOR) is still disputed because type 1 of both disorders is caused by the same gene. It seems however that other types deviate. Three types of BOS are known so far. Type 2 is not yet well characterized and therefore not eligible for diagnostic purposes.

Symptoms

Deafness
Branchiootic syndrome deafness is of a mixed (conductive and sensorineural) type because of malformations (atresia to stenosis) of the external auditory canal and nderdeveloped cochlea and semicircular canals, respectively.
