Abstract
Most congenital lip sinuses are located in the lower lip and are often associated with other congenital anomalies, mainly cleft lip and palate. Sinuses of the upper lip are rare, and are usually found in the midline. It is therefore of interest to present a case of a lateral sinus of the upper lip.
