ABSTRACT
A family with midline nasal dermoids in four members over five generations is described. Two of these individuals also had a midline cleft lip. The pattern of inheritance appears to be autosomal dominant with variable expression. To our knowledge, no familial cases of midline clefting with nasal dermoids have previously been reported in the literature. Cranial imaging to look for intracerebral extension of the dermoid is recommended in such cases.
