Branchio-oto-renal (BOR) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the association of branchial cysts or fistulae, external ear malformation and/or preauricular pits, hearing loss and renal anomalies. Mutations in the EYA1 gene, a human homologue of the drosophila "eyes absent" gene, are identified as the cause of BOR syndrome.
