Abstract
Poland Anomaly (PA) represents pectoral muscle hypoplasia in combination with various forms of hand anomalies. We report a case of PA with pectoral hypoplasia, an upper limb deficiency and an accessory extremity/digit on the ipsilateral thoracic wall (thoracomelia). To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of thoracomelia in PA.
