Bony anomaly caused by lip tie is not many reported yet. There was a case of upper lip tie wrapping into the anterior premaxilla. We represent a case of severe upper lip tie of limited lip motion, upper lips curling inside, and alveolar hypoplasia. Male patient was born on June 3, 2016. He had a deep philtral sulcus, low vermilion border and deep cupid's bow of upper lip due to tension of short, stout and very tight frenulum. His upper lip motion was severely restricted in particular lip eversion. There was anterior alveolar hypoplasia with deep sulcus in anterior maxilla. Resection of frenulum cord with Z-plasty was performed at anterior premaxilla and upper lip sulcus. Frenulum was tightly attached to gingiva through gum and into hard palate. Width of frenulum cord was about 1 cm, and length was about 3 cm. He gained upper lip contour including cupid's bow and normal vermilion border after the surgery. This case is severe upper lip tie showing the premaxillary hypoplasia, abnormal lip motion and contour for child. Although there is mild limitation of feeding with upper lip tie child, early detection and treatment are needed to correct bony growth.

The purpose this study was to investigate the variations of the soft tissue profile contour in relation to the skeletal patterns and to confirm the correlation of soft tissue angles to the sagittal or vertical skeletal elements. Lateral cephalograms of 79 cases which were older than 17 years in age, were traced and statistically analyzed. The obtained results were as follows : 1. Nasolabial angle, interlabial angle, lower lip angle, mentolabial angle, symphyseal angle showed the significant differences between skeletal Class II and skeletal. Class III group, but nasofrontal, upper lip, mentolavbial, and symphyseal angles showed the significant differences between high angle low angle group. 2. ANB value showed the dignificant positive correlation to nasolabial, symphuseal, and interlabial angles and the significant negative felation to lower lip angle. 3. SN-GoMe vlue showed the significant positive correlation to mentolabial, symphyseal, nasofrontal, and upper lip angles. 4. Soft tissue profile contour in SK. Class II group showed greater accofdance to SN-GoMe value than those in SK. Class III group.

lip, the most popular method is the rotation-advancement by Millard. Despite advantages of Millard repair, a few pitfalls exist. Above all, some of the scars, at the height of the cleft side philtral ridge, cross the Langer's line. Further, in the repair of complete cleft lip, small triangular lateral lip flap is often added in the base of an advancement flap to level the Cupid's bow. Moreover, preservation of the advancement flap has some negative effects on a primary nasal repair. As a result, the shape of philtrum is somewhat unnatural. Therefore, I applied the extended Mohler repair in the six cases of complete wide cleft lip to get a more esthetic scar. As a result, more natural, straight philtral ridge was obtained, without adding small triangular flap in the base of the advancement flap.]]>

It is known in general that neoplasms of smooth mucsle appear very rarely in the oral region, probaly because in the oral region with histopathologic investigations have been reported. This report presents an unusual case of angioleiomyoma that developed on the lower lip of a 48-year the course of one year and the immunohistochemical findings of the angioleiomyyoma are described.
