Poland Syndrome

In the event of congenital asymmetry of the
breast shape Poland Syndrome can be suspected.

Poland Syndrome Correction

POLAND SYNDROME?

It is a phenomenon in which development disorder manifests congenitally only in one side of the thorax.
It is characterized by manifestation of such disorder only in one of the breasts with manifestation in both breasts highly rare.
Prevalence rate is estimated at 1 out of every 10,000 ~ 100,000 people.

Poland Syndrome cause

Surgery method for Poland Syndrome

Similar to breast reconstruction, it is proceeded in the method of inserting implant after having extended the tissues by inserting tissue expander into the breast.
(It is also possible to insert implant directly without having to insert tissue expander.)
  • Poland Syndrome Correction

    Breast tissues are sufficient distended by injecting saline solution for 2~3 months after having inserted tissue expander.

  • Poland Syndrome Correction

    Once the tissue is distended sufficiently, pull out the tissue expander and replace it with implant.

  • Poland Syndrome Correction

    Following the breast reconstruction, reconstruct the nipple and areola once the breast is normally formed and shaped.

Since it is important to achieve the symmetry of the asymmetric breast at the time of surgery for Poland Syndrome, it is necessary to accurately diagnose the breast conditions of the patient and consider the symmetry of both sides by performing breast augmentation or mastopexy for the opposite breast.
