Case Reports

Cheilitis glandularis: a pediatric case report



R Yacobi and DA Brown
Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Canada.

Cheilitis glandularis is a rare disorder, usually affecting the lower lip of adults. This case involved both lips of an adolescent male. A familial history of the condition may have contributed to the involvement of both lips, and may reinforce the importance of hereditary tendency in the development of cheilitis glandularis. Emotional disturbance and poor oral hygiene also had a role in the disorder in this case, which was successfully treated with surgery.
