Proper Diagnosis

Synovial sarcomas are uncommon soft tissue tumours. Immunohistochemistry and cytogenetic techniques are essential for proper diagnosis and differentiation from other spindle cell neoplasms. A case of mediastinal synovial sarcoma is described, of which the unusual location, diagnosis and treatment form the basis of this report.

Synovial Tissues

Synovial sarcoma (SS) is a rare and highly malignant tumor and a type of soft tissue sarcoma (STS), for which survival has not improved significantly in recent years. Synovial sarcomas occur mostly in adolescents and young adults (15–35 years old), usually affecting the deep soft tissues near the large joints of the extremities, with males being at a slightly higher risk. Despite its name, synovial sarcoma is neither related to the synovial tissues that are a part of the joints, i.e., the synovium, nor does it express synovial markers; however, the periarticular synovial sarcomas can spread as a secondary tumor to the joint capsule. SS was initially described as a biphasic neoplasm comprising of both epithelial and uniform spindle cell components. Synovial sarcoma is characterized by the presence of the pathognomonic t (X; 18) (p11.2; q11.2) translocation, involving a fusion of the SS18 (formerly SYT) gene on chromosome 18 to one of the synovial sarcoma X (SSX) genes on chromosome X (usually SSX1 or SSX2), which is seen in more than 90% of SSs and results in the formation of SS18-SSX fusion oncogenes.

Primary Renal Sarcoma is rare tumor comprising only 1% of all renal tumours. Synovial sarcomas are generally deep-seated tumors arising in the proximity of large joints of adolescents and young adults and account for 5-10% of all soft tissue tumours. Primary synovial sarcoma of kidney is rare and has poor prognosis. It can only be diagnosed by immunohistochemistry. It should be considered as a differential in sarcomatoid and spindle cell tumours. We present a case of 33-year-old female, who underwent left sided radical nephrectomy for renal tumour. Histopathology and genetic analysis diagnosed it to be primary renal synovial sarcoma. Patient underwent radiation therapy and 2 years follow up is uneventful. A brief case report with review of literature is presented.

Antimesenteric Border

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMT) occurring at intraabdominal sites in children has rarely been described. Inflammatory pseudotumour is a soft tissue lesion that may be confused with a sarcoma. It is abbreviated as IMT. Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour, also known as soft tissue tumours, atypical fibromyxoid tumours, pseudosarcomatous fibromyxoid tumour, plasma cell granuloma, pseudosarcomatous myofibrotic proliferation, post-operative spindle cell nodules. In this paper, we describe a case of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMT) with an unusual constellation of clinical, pathological findings. A 10-year-old girl had an 7-cm intraabdominal mass accompanied by severe anemia, fever, constipation, weight loss, thrombocytosis, elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate. Laparotomy was performed. The final pathologic diagnosis was IMT. At the most recent follow up (12months) after excision of the tumour, the patient was symptom-free and there was no evidence of tumour recurrence.J. Paediatr.

Synovial sarcomas are most commonly localised in extremities, especially in the lower thigh and knee areas. Comprising less than 1% of all malignancies, retroperitoneal synovial sarcoma is very rare with primary synovial sarcoma of the kidney being even more infrequent and difficult to diagnose. We describe a case report of a renal synovial sarcoma in a young adult who was initially managed as a case of Wunderlich’s syndrome secondary to what was believed to be a ruptured renal angiomyolipoma. After biopsy confirmation, the patient was eventually managed with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy followed by a right radical nephrectomy and right hepatectomy. Despite its rarity, synovial sarcoma should be considered as differential diagnosis of a bleeding retroperitoneal soft tissue mass detected in young adults.

Second Primary Tumour

Leiomyosarcomas are soft tissue tumours that rarely occur in the larynx. This case report describes the presentation and management of a 77-year-old man referred to the otolaryngology clinic with hoarseness who was found to have a large supraglottic leiomyosarcoma after panendoscopy and biopsies. He subsequently underwent laryngectomy for treatment of this tumour but, unexpectedly, the histological analysis of the laryngectomy specimen revealed a second primary tumour in the larynx—a squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The patient had further treatment with neck radiotherapy. Three years after treatment, there are no signs of recurrence of either tumour. This case report discusses the very few similar cases of leiomyosarcoma coexisting with SCC in the larynx, collating the evidence surrounding the treatment of this rare presentation.
