Abstract:
Synovial sarcoma is an aggressive malignant neoplasm arising from mesenchymal tissue representing 7-10% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Typically, it presents in children and young adults aged 13-35 years of age. These are usually located in the extremities, most commonly around the knee. Paraspinal region is a rare site of synovial sarcoma and thus requires a high index of suspicion for timely diagnosis. Here, we discuss such a rare case of paraspinal synovial sarcoma.
