Abstract

Radiation-induced second malignancies, particularly radiation-induced sarcomas, are rare. We report the caseof a 62-year-old Moroccan man diagnosed as having chondrosarcoma of his right scapula, who was irradiated 10 years ago for stage IIIB non-small cell lung cancer. This case was managed by a Total scapulectomy with the suspension with good functional and oncological outcomes.
