Poland sendromu pektoralis major kasının tek taraflı yokluğu ile karakterize konjenital bir sendromdur. Bu sendroma meme, el ve diğer organ anomalileri de eşlik edebilir. Genellikle sağ tarafı tutar ve erkeklerde daha sıktır. Otuzaltı yaşında hemoptizi ile başvuran erkek hastanın çekilen akciğer grafisinde sağ hemitoraksta saydamlık artışı saptandı. Bu nedenle çekilen toraks bilgisayarlı tomografisinde Poland sendromu saptandı. Bu olgu az görüldüğü ve radyolojik özellikleri nedeniyle sunulmuştur.
