Ann Thorac Surg. 2012 Oct;94(4):e103-4. doi: 10.1016/j.athoracsur.2012.03.106.

Abstract

The combination of right-sided Poland syndrome and dextrocardia is rare. To our knowledge, reports regarding this subject are lacking in the published literature to date. Previous reports suggested that dextrocardia may be part of the left sided Poland syndrome. We report and discuss this rare combination.
