Anastomotic airway complications after lung transplantation affect up to 20% of patients. Bronchial stenosis is the most frequent complication, while dehiscence of bronchial anastomosis is a rarely seen complication, with report incidences between 1% and 10%. Despite its low incidence, dehiscence of bronchial anastomoses remains a disastrous complication in the posttransplantation period without a well-established management protocol. We present a challenging case of complete bronchial dehiscence after unilateral lung transplantation in a patient with interstitial lung fibrosis (ILF) that occurred on postoperative day 10. The dehiscence was diagnosed early and the patient's status was stable for repeat thoracotomy, therefore, an early surgical approach was preferable to conservative management or bronchoscopy. Aggressive early surgical management in a stable patient allows for complete debridement with removal of the detritus that impedes correct anastomosis healing and permits the removal of microbial vegetations with successful results.

El síndrome de Poland es una malformación congénita infrecuente. Se trata de una anomalía descrita en 1841 por Alfred Poland en el Guy's Hospital de Londres, caracterizada por hipoplasia de la mama y el pezón, escasez de tejido subcutáneo y ausencia de la porción costoesternal del músculo pectoral mayor, que se asocia a alteraciones de los dedos de la mano del mismo lado. La corrección de las anormalidades del tórax y los tejidos blandos en el síndrome de Poland varía según el autor. Presentamos el caso de una adolescente de 17 años en el que se elige una prótesis de metilmetacrilato para la reconstrucción de la pared torácica. Este procedimiento quirúrgico está recomendado en grandes defectos de la parte anterior del tórax e impide el movimiento paradójico de la misma. Además nos permite una remodelación individual del defecto de acuerdo con la forma del tórax (AU)
Poland syndrome is a rare congenital malformation. This syndrome was described in 1841 by Alfred Poland at Guy's Hospital in London. It is characterized by hypoplasia of the breast and nipple, subcutaneous tissue shortages, lack of the costosternal portion of the pectoralis major muscle and associated alterations of the fingers on the same side. Corrective treatment of the chest and soft tissue abnormalities in Poland syndrome varies according to different authors. We report the case of a 17-year-old adolescent who underwent chest wall reconstruction with a methyl methacrylate prosthesis. This surgical procedure is recommended for large anterior chest wall defects, and it prevents paradoxical movement. Moreover it provides for individual remodeling of the defect depending on the shape of the patient's chest (AU)
