Van der Woude syndrome (VWS) is an autosomal dominant disorder with a rare clinical manifestation of orofacial disorders with deletion in the 1q32‐q41 chromosome band. In our study we present a clinical case of a 1‐year old boy with a bilateral cleft lip, a cleft palate and bilateral congenital pits on the lower lip and a father with various clinical presentations of VWS.
