Poland syndrome, a chest wall disorder, can be treated with autologous breast reconstruction. This case demonstrates a successful deep inferior epigastric perforator free flap for Poland syndrome, even with unusual internal mammary artery anatomy.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Congenital Disorders
- Reconstructive Surgery
Background:
- Poland syndrome involves chest muscle hypoplasia and breast asymmetry.
- Vascular abnormalities in subclavian arteries are implicated.
- Breast reconstruction in Poland syndrome presents unique challenges.
