Bilateral subtotal scapulectomy for chondrosarcoma in Ollier's disease: successive procedures within a 16-year interval

We report the case of a young man with Oilier's disease who underwent three successive procedures for sarcomatous degeneration of some of his endochon dromatous lesions. From the age of twenty, the patient required surgery for resection of a cartilage tumor of the body of L5, amputation of the right index finger, and successive right then left subtotal scapulectomy. At 40 y ears, the patient presents other stable lesions, mainly located on the righ t side of the body. We were particularly interested in the functional outco me of the two shoulders in this patient who continues to have normal social and occupational activities.
