Abstract:
A bit more than one year ago, there was a major breakthrough in the treatment of sensorineural hearing loss: three publications1,2,3 reported on the first successful gene therapy trials to restore hearing function in children with autosomal recessive prelingual deafness DFNB9. In their recent publication in Med, Zhang et al.4 report follow-up data regarding objective measures of hearing function.
