Zusammenfassung:	Abstract In 2007 a 9½-year-old boy was treated with resection, extracorporeal irradiation and re-implantation of the right scapula. He also received chemotherapy. During five year follow-up shoulder function remained largely intact. Subtotal resorption of the scapula occurred, leaving only the glenohumeral joint intact. Sensibility and strength are intact. To date there is no sign of local or metastatic recurrence.
