Synovial sarcomas are high-grade soft tissue sarcomas of primitive mesenchymal origin which are defined by a pathognomonic t(X;18)(p11,q11) translocation, and which occur in pediatric and adult populations. Herein we report a case of a 33-year-old female with a history of nasopharyngeal carcinoma status post radiotherapy, presenting with a poorly differentiated synovial sarcoma of the nasal cavity arising in the radiation field. While the development of radiation-associated sarcoma is a known complication of radiotherapy, to date only 10 cases of synovial sarcoma have been reported to occur in previously irradiated tissues. Moreover, only 1 case of poorly differentiated synovial sarcoma involving the nasopharynx has been described. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
