title: Synovial sarcoma involving the median nerve: a case report.
abstract: Synovial sarcoma may arise from different and unusual sites. Here a case of     biphasic synovial sarcoma arising or invading the radial nerve in a 59-year-old     female classically showing chromosomal reciprocal translocation (X; 18) is     reported. The differential diagnosis from similar tumors is discussed.
