Poland's syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly accompanied by the absence of the pectoralis major, and the ipsilateral upper-limb and chest wall deformities. Hypoplasia of the breast, agenesis of the ipsilateral rib cartilage, athelia, and ipsilateral developmental finger anomalies such as syndactyly can also be seen. In the literature, only 56 cases of dextrocardia and left-sided Poland's syndrome have been described. Herein, a case of left-sided Poland's syndrome coexisting with dextrocardia and nasal hemangioma was presented.
