Van Der Woude Syndrome 1; Vws1

Description

Van der Woude syndrome (VWS) is a dominantly inherited developmental disorder characterized by pits and/or sinuses of the lower lip, and cleft lip and/or cleft palate (CL/P, CP). It is the most common cleft syndrome. Genetic Heterogeneity of van der Woude SyndromeAlso see VWS2 (OMIM ), caused by mutation in the GRHL3 gene (OMIM ) on chromosome 1p36.
