a-d are DR films reexamined at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months and 12 months after operation, respectively. It can be seen that the density of the bone graft area of defect repair and reconstruction decreases gradually, and at 12 months, the density is the same as that of the surrounding normal cancellous bone. There is no obvious boundary between the tumor cavity and the surrounding normal bone tissue, and the tumor cavity basically disappears. e-g show the functional recovery of the patients 1 year after operation, showing the gradual recovery of shoulder abduction, external rotation and protrusion function of the patients
