CHD7 and Kallmann syndrome: EVA is associated with pathogenic variants in SLC26A4. However, in European–Caucasian populations, about 50% of patients with EVA carry no pathogenic alleles of SLC26A4. We tested for the presence of variants in CHD7, a gene known to be associated with CHARGE syndrome, Kallmann syndrome, and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, in a cohort of 34 families with EVA subjects without pathogenic alleles of SLC26A4. In two families, NM_017780.4: c.3553A > G [p.(Met1185Val)] and c.5390G > C [p.(Gly1797Ala)] were detected as monoallelic CHD7 variants in patients with EVA.
