Journal Title: International Journal of Health Sciences and Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 3

Abstract

Poland’s syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly consisting of a unilateral absence of the pectoralis major, hand anomaly and occasionally associated other malformation. Many structural and functional abnormalities have been described in association with this syndrome. We report an incidentally diagnosed case in a 4 year male child presented to us with brachydactyly.
