The Association of Cone-shaped Epiphysis and Poland Syndrome.

ABSTRACT

Poland syndrome is a congenital anomaly with two clinical features unilateral agenesis of the pectoralis major and ipsilateral hand symbrachydactyly. We report a rare case of bilateral Poland syndrome with several unique features. Poland syndrome is thought to be due to a vascular insult to the subclavian axis around the sixth week of gestation. Our patient has multiple rare and unique features of Poland syndrome. For the first time in the literature, we associate Poland syndrome with cone-shaped epiphysis of the metacarpals of all fingers. Bilaterality, cleft hand deformity, and dextrocardia were also rare features in our patient.
