title: Synovial sarcoma of the nasopharynx.
abstract: A case of primary synovial sarcoma of the nasopharynx in a 28-year-old man is presented. The patient was treated with operation followed by radiotherapy and is free of recurrence or evidence of metastasis 40 months after treatment. Because of the extreme rarity of this tumor in this site, the importance of its recognition is stressed.
