【 摘 要 】

Since Dr. Lallemand has defined isolated pectoral muscle absence in 1826 [1], many articles have been published about Poland Syndrome. Ipsilateral syndactyly with pectoralis major muscle agenesis has been defined by Dr.Froriep in 1839 [1]. Dr. Alfred Poland has defined same entity in 1841 while he was a medical student [1]. Agenesis of the pectoralis major muscle’s sternal head is the major finding in diagnosis of Poland Syndrome. Additionally, scoliosis, lung, rib cage (two to four or three to five costal cartilages), breast and nipple-areolar hypoplasia, ipsilateral brachysynphalangism, serratus, pectoralis minor, latissimus dorsi and external oblique muscles hypoplasia, absence of axillary hairs and sweet glands and decreased subcutaneous tissue would be seen together in Poland Syndrome [1, 2].
