Özet

Polands syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by chest wall and upper limb abnormalities. Some lymphreticular and solid malignancies have been reported with this syndrome. Renal cell carcinoma associated with Polands syndrome has not been described previously. We herein describe the first case of a Polands syndrome associated with renal cell carcinoma diagnosed incidentally after a road accident. All the cases with Polands syndrome should be aware of onchologic attention by the radiologists and clinicians.
