Female siblings with Pendred's syndrome were admitted to our clinic. The abnormality of the acoustic structure was examined by MRI. Bilateral enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct and a prominently marked endolymphatic sac were found on MRI. These findings seemed likely to represent a Mondini deformity. Acoustic structure in Pendred's syndrome was examined here by MRI for the first time. We examined their HLA-DR locus as a genetic marker using the affected sib-pair method preliminary. HLA typing might be a diagnostic criteria of Pendred's syndrome, although the present siblings possessed 2 HLA genes in common.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.
