Allograft reconstruction after resection of XXXX .

@entity1 @entity5 @entity2065
The oncologic and functional outcomes of six @entity1 who had scapular allograft reconstruction after scapulectomy for @entity5 were reviewed. Five @entity1 had Stage IIB and one @entity1 had Stage IB @entity5 . Total scapulectomy was done in five @entity1 , and partial scapulectomy (glenoid and neck) was done in one @entity1 . Frozen glycerolized scapular allografts were implanted and fixed with plates and screws. The scapular muscles were reattached to the allograft. Tendon reconstruction to replace the excised muscles was done in two @entity1 . The @entity1 were followed up for an average of 3.8 years (range, 2-6 years). Cosmesis, elbow, and hand function were good in all @entity1 . There were no infections, nonunions, or @entity2065 . One @entity1 fractured the body of the allograft after a fall. One @entity1 had local recurrence and had scapulectomy 5 years postoperatively. Two @entity1 died 3 and 5 years postoperatively with lung metastases but with functioning grafts. The mean functional result using the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society functional score was 82 (range, 77-87). In this series, scapular allograft reconstruction restored cosmesis, shoulder stability, and function. Preservation or reconstruction of rotator cuff muscles is recommended.
