We describe the case of a 38-year-old female affected by chondrosarcoma of the right scapula (stage IIA according to Enneking staging system), treated with an intra-articular total scapulectomy (type 3 according Malawer’s classification) and reconstruction with a cryopreserved massive osteoarticular scapular allograft.
