Although the exact percentage of non‐syndromic ANSD is unclear, responsible genes continue to be identified, with mutations in the AUNA1, OTOF, PJVK, and GJB2 genes as well as in mitochondrial 12S rRNA reported to cause non‐syndromic ANSD (Manchaiah et al., 2011). Here, DIAPH3 is linked to auditory neuropathy.
