Abstract
A 2-year-old girl with Poland's syndrome presented with syndactyly of the first, second and third webs of the left hand and ipsilateral absence of the sternocostal portion of pectoralis major. Latissimus dorsi on the same side was also absent. A microvascular free contralateral latissimus dorsi muscle transfer was undertaken to reconstruct the chest wall and anterior axillary fold. The transfer was innervated by intercostal nerve transfer and produced a neuromuscular unit of good aesthetic appearance and function.Entities:
