Abstract
Occurrence of scapular defeat by malignant tumors is rather low. Reconstruction of functional and cosmetic defect after total scapulectomy at the moment has no standards and still remains a discussed problem. Scapular endoprosthesis partially allows to decrease limitations of other reconstructive operations and to increase functional result of an extremity. however this method of reconstruction has rather narrow indications and high risks of complications that complicates its use at the majority of operations on a total scapulectomy. Achievement of good clinical, functional and oncological result depends on observance of indications to a total scapulectomy, observance of operation technics, careful selection of patients.
