  • Why do they call it Poland syndrome???

  • @rvz77 the guy who found out that this was actually a deformity his last name was poland

  • Enjoyed watching your video. My son has Poland Syndrome. He's only a toddler so I appreciate seeing what your hand looks like to see the potential of his hand in the future. Did you have any hand surgeries?

  • i haven't  had any yet but i can have one to remove the webbing the only thing that does is makes your fingers look bigger

  • mine feels weird :/

  • @rvz77 the first man to ever have it, his last name was Poland :)

  • Thanks for making this video. I'm a female with left-sided poland syndrome in combination with syncactyly...i've never seen anyone in my life who has the same...so even it if is just on YouTube...thanks so much =) And yes...just like you i am living the life i wanna live. Thanks buddy.

  • Thanks for sharing! It's good to see what the hand of my little son could look like in the future! It seems that there are just very few ressources about it on the net...

  • I have it to  ! my arm is normal but it affects me more because im a girl

  • Nice Video. Finally found a name for what my niece has. She is now 19 years old and this really affected her when she turned 16. Her breast on one side and she has a webbed small hand also. Her bro/nephew also has this, not hand. She is ashamed and in the last 3 years, we can see that it is depressing her to the point of drinking and cutting. My question - will medical assistance help pay for re constructive surgery? I'd be willing to pay the difference in cost but can't afford $5,000+.

  • @rvz77 "Poland" does not refer to the nation but to Alfred Poland. Born in 1822 in London, he became demonstrator in anatomy in 1839 at Guy's Hospital. There he dissected the body of a deceased convict named George Elt whom he reported had "Deficiency of the pectoral muscles"

  • @rvz77 The Scientist who discovered it's last name was Poland, and its a syndrome, and bomb, you get Poland Syndrome
