Synovial sarcoma most commonly affects adults in the third to fifth decades of life, and is the most common sarcoma of the foot. The tumors are encapsulated and frequently in contact with bone. Because there are often few anatomical barriers, malignant spread to surrounding nerves and vasculature is common. This article discusses the case of a young patient who presented to the foot and ankle clinic with soft tissue swelling in the right foot, and the imaging protocol for such a patient. A literature review of synovial sarcoma is also presented.
滑膜肉瘤最常发生于30至50岁的成年人，是足部最常见的肉瘤。肿瘤有包膜，且常与骨接触。由于解剖屏障通常较少，恶性肿瘤扩散至周围神经和血管很常见。本文讨论了一名年轻患者的病例，该患者因右足软组织肿胀就诊于足踝诊所，以及针对此类患者的影像学检查方案。同时还对滑膜肉瘤进行了文献综述。
