Abstract

Congenital bifid tongue is a rare malformation, which is usually present in association with other oral findings such as cleft palate and tongue mass. The authors present a rare case of congenital bifid tongue together with cleft palate, labial-buccal frenulum deformity, absence of lingual frenulum, and 3 hamartomas in the oral cavity. The authors excised oral hamartomas and repaired the palate and tongue with satisfactory results.
