    Author: Shipkov Kh, Anastasov Iu, Mikhailov T.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Sofiia); 2000; 56(2):26-9. PubMed ID: 11484283.
    Abstract:
    We present two cases with Poland's anomaly in a 36 years old man and 27 years old woman and review the possibilities of surgical reconstruction. We performed a one-stage chest-wall reconstruction with a prefabricated silicone implant and latissimus dorsi muscle flap in our male patient with chest-wall deformity and partial absence of the pectoral major muscle. Our female patient with absent pectoral major muscle and aplasia of the mammary gland and mammalia underwent a one-stage reconstruction with a prefabricated silicone implant and latissimus dorsi muscle flap and inflatable silicone prothesis for the mound of the breast.
