Synovial Sarcoma

Synovial sarcoma is a rare cancer of the soft tissues. It most often appears near large joints of the arms or legs, but it can occur elsewhere in the body, and it often affects teenagers and younger adults. Despite its name, it does not start in the joint lining. Treatment usually involves surgery, often with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and new targeted therapies are being studied.
