Objective:
This study aimed to characterize audiological porfile in inviduals with Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome (BVVLS).
Methods:
This is a scoping review following the methodological structure developed by the Joana Briggs Institute (JBI). The PCC mnemonic was used to elaborate the research question, which resulted in the research question: "What are the audiological findings in individuals with BVVLS?".
Results:
All of the studies included in this review were case reports. The main audiological findings are sensorineural hearing loss and Auditory Neuropathy Spectrum Disorder (ANSD).
Conclusion:
All individuals presented a severe to profound bilateral hearing loss, related to ANSD.
