Poland Syndrome and Breast Tumor: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Poland syndrome is a rare congenital malformation. Hypoplasia of the sternocostal portion of the pectoralis major muscle is the most significant feature and is most frequently associated with homolateral breast hypoplasia.
