Early language outcomes of children born with unilateral aural atresia
Thirty-three percent of children (n = 2) were performing below the language levels expected for peers without hearing loss. Children's auditory development and functional auditory performance are comparable to children with typical hearing despite their low hearing device use. These results should be interpreted with caution due to the small number of children participating in the study.
