INTRODUCTION

We report a case of intraarticular synovial sarcoma in the right knee of a 25 years old male. He suffered, for a long time, of pain and limited joint function. Clinic exploration revealed a palpable mass at this level.

Synovial sarcoma is a morphologically well delineated neoplasm typically found in extremities of children and young adults, usually in near vicinity of articulations. Cases of intraarticular location are rare (10% of total synovial sarcomas)⁽¹⁾. This and the predominant monophasic fusocellular pattern of the neoplasm are the relevant points of this work.
