/Objectives: Wolfram syndrome type 1 (WS1) is a rare, progressive, multisystem neurodegenerative disorder characterized by diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, diabetes insipidus, and sensorineural hearing loss. As survival has improved, an increasing number of affected women are reaching reproductive age. However, evidence on pregnancy and peripartum management in WS1 remains scarce, and practical guidance is limited....
This single case report offers no generalizable guidance for audiology practice; audiologists encountering Wolfram Syndrome patients should continue coordinating with neurology and genetics, but no practice change is supported by a single case.
Wolfram Syndrome Type 1 is a rare but serious cause of progressive hearing loss, and documenting pregnancy management expands the limited clinical literature on this condition.
