ABSTRACT
Objective. To analyze the distribution by age of the ancestors of seven patients with hypoacusia-prelingual deafness (H-PD) attributed to bilateral cortipathies, in addition to a group of congenital malformations of external ear (CMEE).
Material and methods. The parents of the studied patients were distributed by age in three groups (younger than 20 years, between 20 and 35 years, and 35 or more years). The results were compared with the reported by the Instituto Nacional de Geografía, Estadística e Informática (INEGI) of Mexico.
Results. Of 5 614 files of Instituto Nacional de la Comunicación Humana (INCH), 708 corresponded to H-PD. Most frequent cortipathies were: 31.8% by nondetermined cause, 23.2% related to adverse perinatal factors, 13.8% of hereditary type, and 10.7% by infections. In relation to the three ancestors etary groups participant in the study, the percentage differences were analyzed respect to the ages of the general population.
Conclusions. It turns out controversial to establish relations between H-PD and age of the ancestors. The studied groups of ages reflect differences that express genetic, social and environmental context in that ancestors and patients evolve. In this work, the possible relation between these factors and the differences found when comparing the ages of ancestors of patients with H-PD and the ages of the general population is examined.
