Abstrakt: The authors describe their experience of breast reconstruction in Poland's syndrome and analyse 9 cases (eight females, one male) between 1981-1991. The mean age was 25 years (17-53 years). Three women were operated by the Mouly-Dufourmentel surgical procedure: translation of the homolateral latissimus dorsi muscle flap with a mammary prosthesis. The muscle flap was used alone in the male. Mammary prostheses were performed alone in four other women. Breast asymmetry was corrected by mammaplasty alone in one woman. In three cases, in order to achieve optimal symmetry, the controlateral ptosed hypertrophic breast was corrected (two cases in the same procedure, one case later). In three cases, a nipple-areolar restoration was performed at the patient's request. These results are analysed with an average follow-up of 5.4 years (2-11 years) and are compared to the literature data.
