ABSTRACT

Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is a specific form of hearing loss characterized by normal or near-normal outer hair cell function but severely abnormal or completely absent afferent neural activity in the auditory pathway. This review is to provide physicians and clinicians with information about the disorder and to help them understand it. It includes descriptions of causes of ANSD, assessment tools used to diagnose ANSD, limitations in current tools to determine site(s) of lesion, and current evidence related to the management of individuals with ANSD.
