The only "Treatment" available is surgery. For those with webbed fingers or malformed hands, surgery can certainly increase mobility however most Poland Syndrome surgery is cosmetic.

Poland syndrome is a defect that affects your chest and hand on one side. From what ive experienced/seen, most people have one hand smaller than another (similar to nemos lucky fin),
And are usually born without a pectoral muscle. It can be pectoral minor, or it can be pectoral major, or like in my case, it can be both. The only treatments that is possible, is a prosthetic pectoral implant. As for the affected hand, thats something you have to learn to love.

Z plasty for the webbed fingers ( I had mine done at Shriners Hospital in Portland Oregon) and DIEP for Breast reconstruct (I had mine done at www.breastcenter.com in New Orleans, LA by Dr. Frank Dellacrose ). I do NOT recommend implants of any kind. I have had 5 over the years and they all go bad. I am 62 years old.

Reconstructive surgery is the main treatment for those with Poland syndrome. Either existing chest muscle or transplanting muscle from another body area may be used to develop symmetry between the affected and unaffected side. If chest-wall ribs are underdeveloped or missing, bioengineered cartilage can be implanted to help give the chest a more normal appearance. Reconstructive surgery may be considered in males as young as 13 years of age. In females, in order to ensure breast similarity in size and character, reconstructive surgery is often postponed until breast development on the uninvolved side has been completed. Therapeutic tattooing can be uses to create the appearance of an areola and nipple.

Either surgical implant for the pec major, and/or surgery to correct fused fingers. I had a reconstructive muscle transposition surgery that left me with significant morbidities such as weakness on the affected side.
