Does Poland Syndrome Affect The Balance And Strength Of The Leg?
Hello doctor. I am curious about Poland Syndrome because my brother has it. I was wondering if Poland syndrome affects the legs in some way along with the chest. Iknow that my brother doesnt't have all of the muscles in his chest and he is missing his left muscle of his chest. Does it affect balance in his legs, strength in his legs, or something else to that matter?

I read your question and understood your concern.
Poland syndrome does not affect the leg strength and balance. You should look for other causes then Poland syndrome.
