Abstract
In FD, hearing loss is common and age-matched hearing thresholds by frequency are worse than in the general population. Hearing loss was associated to the presence of acroparesthesias and higher values of microalbuminuria. Hearing loss stabilized in patients under ERT. A careful cochleo-vestibular evaluation should be part of the clinical assessment of FD.
