Metastatic pulmonary synovial sarcoma: A double coincidence: Case report

Synovial sarcomas are considered as one of the most aggressive neoplasms that account for approximately 8% of all soft tissue sarcomas; they are mainly localized in soft tissues of the extremities and joints and rarely occur in the thorax. In this case report, we describe a 34-year-old woman present...

Sumario:Synovial sarcomas are considered as one of the most aggressive neoplasms that account for approximately 8% of all soft tissue sarcomas; they are mainly localized in soft tissues of the extremities and joints and rarely occur in the thorax. In this case report, we describe a 34-year-old woman presenting a chest pain with a chest radiography showing a mass lesion occupying two-thirds of the right hemi-thorax. A malignant pulmonary tumor was suspected after CT imaging revealing a bilateral renal metastasis, and then a spindle-cell carcinoma was thought-about. The post-operative pathological analysis of the main mass confirmed the diagnosis of a pulmonary synovial sarcoma.
