Nodular fasciitis is a rare but benign fibroblastic proliferation that typically presents as a solitary lesion with rapid growth and variable mitotic activity. The lesions usually occur on the extremities and occasionally in the head/neck region. Involvement of the buccal mucosa is extremely rare with only few reports in the literature; in this case report, we describe a 41 year old female who presented with a 6-month history of a stable intraoral lump at the junction of the upper and lower lip.

Orofacial clefts (OFCs) refer to clefts of the lip and palate, a heterogeneous group of relatively common congenital conditions that can cause mortality and significant disability if untreated, and residual morbidity even when treated with multidisciplinary care. Contemporary challenges in the field include: lack of awareness of OFCs in remote, rural and impoverished populations; uncertainties due to lack of surveillance and data gathering infrastructure; inequitable access to care in some parts of the world; and lack of political will combined with lack of capacity to prioritise research.OFCs present clinically as either syndromic or non-syndromic, with the latter either being isolated or in conjunction with other malformations; however, many registries still do not differentiate between these fundamentally different entities and lump a spectrum of cleft types and sub-phenotypes together.
