Bilateral polycystic kidneys and chronic renal failure were observed in a 48‐year‐old woman with the classic clinical features of the oral‐facial‐digital syndrome, Type I (OFD‐I). Since this association has been previously reported in two other patients, these findings suggest that polycystic kidneys may be a hitherto unrecognized manifestation of the oral‐facial‐digital syndrome.
