M L CheneyF E LeJeune

Abstract

Congenital pits of the lower lip are rare malformations, inherited in an autosomal dominant fashion (penetrance approximately 80 per cent), and closely associated with cleft lip, cleft lip/palate, or isolated cleft palate. The phenomenon of paramedian labial pits is discussed, and an example of inheritance pattern is reported.
