Van der woude syndrome with short review of the literature.
[]
Van
der
Woude
syndrome
(
VWS
)
is
a
rare
autosomal
dominant
condition
with
high
penetrance
and
variable
expression
.
Clinical
manifestation
of
this
autosomal
dominant
clefting
syndrome
includes
bilateral
midline
lower
lip
pits
,
cleft
lip
,
and
cleft
palate
along
with
hypodontia
.
These
congenital
lip
pits
appear
as
a
malformation
in
the
vermilion
border
of
the
lip
,
with
or
without
excretion
.
Discomfort
caused
by
spontaneous
or
induced
drainage
of
saliva
/
mucus
when
pressure
is
applied
or
during
a
meal
as
well
as
poor
aesthetic
match
is
one
of
the
main
complaints
of
patients
with
congenital
lip
fistula
.
The
pits
are
treated
by
surgical
resection
.
Dentists
should
be
aware
of
the
congenital
lip
pits
as
in
Van
der
Woude
syndrome
because
they
have
been
reported
to
be
associated
with
a
variety
of
malformations
or
other
congenital
disorders
.
Here
,
the
authors
report
a
rare
case
of
Van
der
Woude
syndrome
with
short
review
of
the
literature
.
