Sažetak
Poland syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly consisting of ipsilateral partial or total
amastia (absence of breast), atelia (absence of mamilla), the large pectoral muscle
and ipsilateral symbrachidactylia. The exact etiology of Poland syndrome remains
unknown but is thought that a disruption in the flow of subclavian artery might be
responsible. It happens to occur during the sixth week of embrionic development. We
report a seven-month-old male infant with dystonia and thoracal aplasia, absence
of large pectoral muscle, breast and its mamilla and brachydactylia of index finger
on the right side. The authors are not familiar with the previously published case
of Poland syndrome accompanied with neuromotor deviation. The case therefore
suggests that, despite good initial compensation in the early development of fine
motor skills, it is necessary to maintain follow-up procedures in order to prevent
later difficulties in the development of motor skills.
