This report describes the case history of two male siblings with sensorineural hearing loss and an enlarged vestibular aqueduct (EVA). Sibling 1 presented with a history of intermittent self-limiting ataxia and hearing loss at the age of 25 months and sibling 2 presented with a similar history at the age of 18 months. MRI showed an enlarged endolymphatic duct and sac bilaterally in both children. Perchlorate discharge tests were positive in both infants leading to a diagnosis of Pendred syndrome. A number of conditions associated with EVA are discussed with a view to devising management strategies.
