Many human syndromes associated with hearing loss are caused by disease genes located on the X chromosome, but few X‐linked loci for non‐syndromic hearing loss have been reported. Surprisingly, a Y‐linked locus has been identified, representing one of the only disease loci on the Y chromosome. This study reviews the different sex‐linked genes and loci on the X‐ and Y chromosome leading to syndromic and especially non‐syndromic hearing loss.
