Introduction
Pai syndrome is a rare genetic disorder mainly characterized by the association of complete median cleft of palate and upper lip, midline facial cutaneous, and mid-anterior alveolar process polyps, duplicated maxillary median frenulum, bifid nose, and midline lipoma(s) of the central nervous system, in particular, the corpus callosum. The incidence of this syndrome is much higher in males than in females. The etiology remains unknown: The syndrome may be associated with autosomal-dominant inheritance, but X-linked recessive inheritance could not be excluded.
