Abstract
Congenital lower lip pits often appear as one of the main features of Van der Woude syndrome (VWS), which is an autosomal dominant disorder syndrome. Although most cases are associated with cleft lip, cleft palate, or both, some cases are rarely accompanied by anomalies other than cleft lip and palate. Lower lip pits are usually excised for cosmesis, but some of them have mucocele as a complication. In this paper, we report a case of lower lip pits associated with commissural pits, which was complicated by a mucocele after excision.
