Tuberous Breast and Poland Syndrome: An Underestimated Association?
TB incidence in our series was almost twice than in general population. This is the first study demonstrating and quantifying this association.

A multidisciplinary approach is needed to minimize number of surgeries and maximize cosmetic results.
