Periarticular cyst and cystic soft tissue lesion around the knee are common. Synovial sarcoma is a rare and malignant soft tissue tumor accounting for approximately 5% of soft tissue sarcoma. A case is presented where a lesion adjacent to the joint line of the knee was diagnosed clinically and on imaging as a meniscal cyst. MRI signal was homogenous and no concomitant meniscal tears were seen...

to define efficacy of pre-operative chemotherapy in down staging of advanced non-round cell soft tissue sarcomas. from sep 2002 to dec 2005, 70 patients were treated by ifosfamid, mesna, cisplatin, adriamycin, mitomycin and subsequent surgery. postoperatively, patients received radiotherapy in cases of microscopically incomplete resection or local recurrence. the median age of the patients was ...

although rare, synovial sarcoma is the most common malignant non-rhabdomyosarcomatous soft tissue sarcoma in children and adolescents. synovial sarcoma typically involves the soft tissues of the extremities, especially near large joints, but it can occur anywhere in the body in locations far from joint spaces. although this tumor typically affects adults in their fourth decade of life, nearly h...

A case is reported with clear cell sarcoma (CCS) of the hand. Early diagnosis of clear cell sarcoma is always difficult due to its slow growing nature, benign clinical appearance, lack of pigmentation in most cases, and relatively young age of patients which make it to clinically appear as a benign soft tissue tumor. We report a case of clear cell sarcoma of hand in a 56 year old male with a no...

extra-skeletal ewing’s sarcoma is a rare soft tissue malignant neoplasm, morphologically indistinguishable from skeletal ewing’s sarcoma. the usual sites of involvement are the soft tissues of para-vertebral region, chest wall, and lower extremity. extra-skeletal ewing’s sarcoma is rare in the head and neck region and very few cases are reported in the parotid gland. the cytological features of...
