Synovial sarcoma involving the median nerve: a case report.
2012
In December 2010, a 59-year-old female not showing von Recklinghausen syndrome was admitted to Ospedale San Martino, Genova, Italy, having a palpable nodule located in the soft tissue of the right forearm. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed that the lesion was located between the flexor muscles and the radial diaphysis and was strictly adherent to the median nerve and ulnar artery (Figure 1). In January 2011, the nodule was excised. No recurrent tumour was evident at a second MRI obtained in August 2011. No other lesions in other organs were evidenced after a total body computerised tomography scans. The patient was in good health when last seen in December 2011. For treatment, radiation therapy was not administered on first instance as the tumor was well circumscribed and it was considered completely excised.
