Abstract
|
|
|
|
Synovial sarcoma is a malignant soft-tissue tumor that most commonly occurs in the extremities of young adults. There have been several cases of synovial sarcomas of the pleural and lung reported, but synovial sarcoma arising from the chest wall in childhood is very rare. Here we report a case of synovial sarcoma arising from the chest wall in a 3 year-old female patient. The tumor was completely resected. No adjuvant therapy was given. The patient is well 3 years after the operation.
