They usually present as bilateral and symmetric fistulas on either side of the midline of the vermilion of the lower lip. [2] Occasionally only a single pit is present that may be centrally located. [mjmsr.net]

The latter can present with a range of other anomalies such as hypodontia, syndactyly and congenital heart defects. 1 Upper lip pits tend to be non-syndromic epigenetic malformations. [casereports.bmj.com]

They are observed in 88% of VWS, and in 64% they are the only manifestation of the syndrome. [11], [12] Lip pits may have varied presentation and may present as small, raised area (called a microform) with a nipple-like appearance. [13] The other clinical [amhsjournal.org]
