Breast cancer, Poland's syndrome, and sentinel lymph node involvement.
Poland's syndrome includes a wide range of abnormalities that affect the thorax and the upper extremities. We present a case of a woman of 39 years of age who attended our clinic because of a lump in the right breast. Our experience with the present case suggests that the sentinel lymph node biopsy is feasible in patients with Poland's syndrome and breast cancer.
