    What is the definition of Tietz Syndrome?

    Tietz syndrome is a disorder that is characterized by profound hearing loss and unusually light-colored skin and hair (hypopigmentation). The hearing loss in affected individuals is caused by abnormalities of the inner ear (sensorineural hearing loss) and is present from birth. Although people with Tietz syndrome are born with white hair and very pale skin, their hair color often changes over time to blond or light red. Affected individuals sunburn very easily, although they may tan slightly or develop reddish freckles with limited sun exposure. Their skin and hair color will remain lighter than those of other members of their family.
