33例常染色体显性Waardenburg II型综合征患者接受了听力和前庭检查。在51%的测试对象中发现了双侧对称感音神经性听力损失。听力损失的严重程度从轻微到严重不等。强有力的证据表明听力损失可能是进行性的。关于前庭发现的频率，研究强调了耳蜗和前庭受累之间的频繁差异。
A group of 33 patients with the autosomal dominant form of Waardenburg Type II syndrome underwent hearing and vestibular examination. A bilateral, symmetrical, sensorineural hearing loss was found in 51 per cent of the tested subjects. The severity of hearing loss varied from mild to severe. Strong evidence indicated the possible progressive nature of the hearing loss. Concerning the frequency of vestibular findings, the study highlights the frequent divergence between cochlear and vestibular involvement.
