The humero-pectoral band in Poland syndrome is a rare presentation and needs urgent surgery because it restricts the shoulder abduction of the patient. In our case, instead of excising the band, we have made use of the tissue by including it in the Z-plasty flaps which make the flaps reliable even though they were supplied by a narrow base.
