[Cutaneous lesions in the orofaciodigital syndrome].
The term OFD syndrome designates a group of heterogeneous clinical patterns of which seven different types have been described. Type I, or Papillon Léage syndrome, is the most common pattern and the only type in which skin lesions occur. Type I OFD is a sex-linked dominant disorder. Two cases of OFD Type I with cystic lesions of the face are reported herein. The second patient also had polycystic kidneys. This combination has already been reported previously and all children with OFD should be investigated for polycystic kidney disease.
