This article delves into the complexities of sensorineural deafness, focusing on lower cranial nerve signs and their association with various motor neuron diseases. It discusses the distinction between lower motor neuron (LMN) and upper motor neuron (UMN) limb signs and explores additional symptoms such as cataracts, cardiac conduction defects, and hypogonadism. The article also addresses different syndromes linked to sensorineural deafness, including Brown-Vialetto-Van Laere syndrome, Madras motor neuron disease, and more, alongside their age of onset and familial patterns.
