Corneal dystrophy-perceptive deafness syndrome, also known as Harboyan syndrome, is a rare genetic disorder characterized by congenital hereditary corneal dystrophy that occurs alongside progressive hearing loss of post-lingual onset. [2]

Signs and symptoms

Below is a list of the symptoms people with this condition exhibit: [3]

The latter usually appears between the ages of 20 and 30 years old. [4]

Complications

The hearing loss and visual impairment associated with this condition can cause difficulties with living.

Treatment

Although this condition has no cure, it can be treated.

Hearing loss

Corneal dystrophy

Diagnosis

A diagnosis can be made by general symptom examination and with both ophthalmologic and audiometric studies.

Genetics

This condition is caused by mutations in the SLC4A11 gene which are inherited in an autosomal recessive manner (most of the time). [6] [7] Desir et al. (2007) identified mutations in this gene in 6 families, of which 3 were consanguineous and 3 were not, they found homozygosity for the mutation in the consanguineous families and compound heterozygosity in the non-consanguineous families. [8]

Prevalence

According to OrphaNet, only 24 cases from 11 families across the world have been described in medical literature, these families' origins were very diverse, including Indigenous South American, Sephardic Jewish, Brazilian (of Portuguese descent), Dutch, Romani, Moroccan, and Dominican. [9]

Waardenburg syndrome is a group of rare genetic conditions characterised by at least some degree of congenital hearing loss and pigmentation deficiencies, which can include bright blue eyes, a white forelock or patches of light skin. These basic features constitute type 2 of the condition; in type 1, there is also a wider gap between the inner corners of the eyes called telecanthus, or dystopia canthorum. In type 3, which is rare, the arms and hands are also malformed, with permanent finger contractures or fused fingers, while in type 4, the person also has Hirschsprung's disease. There also exist at least two types that can result in central nervous system (CNS) symptoms such as developmental delay and muscle tone abnormalities.

Alport syndrome is a genetic disorder affecting around 1 in 5,000-10,000 children, characterized by glomerulonephritis, end-stage kidney disease, and hearing loss. Alport syndrome can also affect the eyes, though the changes do not usually affect vision, except when changes to the lens occur in later life. Blood in urine is universal. Proteinuria is a feature as kidney disease progresses.

Hereditary inclusion body myopathies (HIBM) are a group of rare genetic disorders which have different symptoms.

Mohr–Tranebjærg syndrome (MTS) is a rare X-linked recessive syndrome also known as deafness–dystonia syndrome and caused by mutation in the TIMM8A gene. It is characterized by clinical manifestations commencing with early childhood onset hearing loss, followed by adolescent onset progressive dystonia or ataxia, visual impairment from early adulthood onwards and dementia from the 4th decade onwards. The severity of the symptoms may vary, but they progress usually to severe deafness and dystonia and sometimes are accompanied by cortical deterioration of vision and mental deterioration.

Ocular albinism late onset sensorineural deafness (OASD) is a rare, X-linked recessive disease characterized by intense visual impairments, reduced retinal pigments, translucent pale-blue irises and moderately severe hearing loss from adolescence to middle-age. It is a subtype of Ocular Albinism (OA) that is linked to Ocular albinism type I (OA1). OA1 is the most common form of ocular albinism, affecting at least 1/60,000 males.

Autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia, deafness, and narcolepsy (ADCADN) is a rare progressive genetic disorder that primarily affects the nervous system and is characterized by sensorineural hearing loss, narcolepsy with cataplexy, and dementia later in life. People with this disorder usually start showing symptoms when they are in their early-mid adulthoods. It is a type of autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxia.
