Characteristics of Townes-Brocks Syndrome and Strategies for The Management of Hearing Loss
This study aims to investigate the disease characteristics of patients with Townes-Brocks Syndrome (TBS) and explore appropriate interventions for different types of hearing loss.
Methods
2
A comprehensive examination was conducted on TBS patients
summarizing the clinical phenotype
laboratory and imaging abnormalities
as well as evaluating and recording detailed results of hearing-related examinations.
Results
2
Based on the evaluation of systemic multi-system abnormalities' tolerability for surgery combined with hearing-related examination results
appropriate interventions were developed.
Conclusion
2
The optimal treatment for patients with TBS should be chosen based on the specific clinical phenotype and the degree and type of hearing loss. including hearing AIDS
auditory chain reconstruction surgery
and cochlear implant.
