Abstract
We describe a child with acute tubular dysfunction, reversible renal failure, and uveitis, whose father has Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome. This is the first reported familial association of these 2 syndromes with distinctively overlapping clinical characteristics. A pathogenic association is proposed.
