A preterm female infant was admitted at birth with respiratory distress. On examination, she had an asymmetric right chest wall and ipsilateral small hand. Air entry was reduced over the right chest. A clinical diagnosis of Poland’s syndrome was made based on the hypoplasia of the right pectoral muscles, absent nipple, deformed ribs and symbrachydactyly of the ipsilateral hand. Chest X-ray suggested and ultrasound confirmed eventration of the right hemidiaphragm. ‘Subclavian artery supply disruption sequence’ (SASDS) theory by Bavnick and Weaver remains the most accepted pathogenic mechanism in Poland’s syndrome. This case reinforces SASDS theory associated with the genesis of Poland’s syndrome that relates to the pathogenicity of vascular disruption of subclavian artery, characteristics of which are unilateral pectoral defects, symbrachydactyly and eventration of the diaphragm. At 2 months, she underwent diaphragm plication. She is under review by our multidisciplinary surgical team for reconstruction of the chest deformity.
