abstract: Van der Woude syndrome (VWS) is an autosomal dominant craniofacial syndrome with variable expression characterised by congenital pits and sinuses in the lower lip together with cleft lip, or palate, or both. We report a case of VWS, which occurred as a new mutation, and review previous reports.
