A case of congenial unilateral lower lip palsy (CULLP) followed for 13 years is described. At age 3 months, this male case revealed an “asymmetric crying face, ” due to left-side lower lip palsy. After a 13-year follow-up period, the weakness has persisted, but the abnormal facial appearance has disappeared with growth and development. Nevertheless CULLP is a minor congenital anomaly with a good prognosis, but possible association with other serious anomalies must be considered.
