: Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a rare congenital overgrowth disorder caused by genetic and epigenetic alterations on chromosome 11p15.5. While macroglossia, abdominal wall defects, and tumor predisposition are well recognized, hearing impairment has been sporadically reported....

Audiologists working with patients who have Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome should be aware of associated hearing involvement, but clinical protocols should await clearer evidence from larger studies; routine audiological monitoring of these patients is prudent.

This is the first systematic review of audiological findings in Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome, providing a foundation for evidence-based hearing surveillance guidelines in this rare genetic population.
