ABSTRACT
This case study highlights a 79-year-old man with chronic low back pain attributed to severe lumbar scoliosis. Physical examination revealed the unilateral absence of pectoral muscles and ipsilateral hand anomalies, indicative of Poland syndrome (PS). The patient also experienced depression due to chronic pain and PS-related anomalies. A multi-disciplinary approach proved effective in alleviating both pain and depression.
