Synovial sarcoma is an uncommon soft tissue tumor occurring mainly in the periarticular region of the extremities in young adults. It happens less frequently in the head and neck, mediastinum, lungs, heart, and digestive tract. A 28-year-old man two months after total esophagectomy with final diagnosis of esophageal synovial sarcoma was referred to our Positron Emission Tomography (PET-CT) department for the evaluation of treatment response and further treatment planning. To our knowledge this case is the 11th case of esophageal synovial sarcoma, being reported in the literature. We presented the 11th case of esophageal synovial sarcoma. Synovial sarcomas are very rare tumor entities, particularly in the gastrointestinal tract and are likely to be mistaken with other more common tumors such as gastrointestinal stromal tumors.
滑膜肉瘤是一种罕见的软组织肿瘤，主要发生于年轻成人四肢的关节周围区域。在头颈部、纵隔、肺、心脏和消化道较少见。一名28岁男性在全食管切除术后两个月，最终诊断为食管滑膜肉瘤，被转诊至我院正电子发射断层显像（PET-CT）科以评估治疗反应并制定进一步治疗方案。据我们所知，该病例是文献报道的第11例食管滑膜肉瘤。我们报道了第11例食管滑膜肉瘤。滑膜肉瘤是非常罕见的肿瘤类型，尤其是在胃肠道，很可能被误诊为其他更常见的肿瘤，如胃肠道间质瘤。
