ABSTRACT
Auditory neuropathy spectrum disorder (ANSD) is a complex and heterogeneous disorder associated with altered neural synchrony with respect to auditory stimuli. Patients have characteristic auditory findings including normal otoacoustic emissions in the setting of abnormal auditory brainstem response. Patients with ANSD have a high incidence of comorbid developmental delay that may impact speech outcomes. Treatment options for ANSD include hearing amplification and cochlear implantation. The article highlights issues and controversies with the diagnosis and treatment of this complex disorder.
