Poland syndrome: aesthetic result after late seroma and implant removal without replacement.

Abstract
We present a case of a delayed seroma with a fibrous capsule formation after insertion of a textured silicone gel-filled implant for the surgical correction of Poland syndrome, in spite of an uneventful intraoperative and early postoperative course. The result achieved after treatment of the seroma without reinsertion of an implant was aesthetically satisfactory.
