Case report 716. Soft-tissue metastasis in synovial sarcoma.
We describe the case of a 21-year-old woman with a synovial sarcoma of the thigh, who exhibited a soft-tissue metastasis to the shoulder approximately 3 months after her initial presentation. Due to its increasing availability and the recognized importance of MRI in the preoperative evaluation of patients with soft-tissue masses, it is important to be aware of even the uncommon manifestations of frequently encountered soft-tissue sarcomas.
