Synovial sarcoma of spine is an extremely rare malignancy with poor prognosis. It is often metastatic at the time of presentation. Its relative rarity and histological resemblance to other tumors make it diagnostically challenging, requiring the need of immunohistochemistry and cytogenetics for definite diagnosis. Surgery is the mainstay of therapy with adjunct chemotherapy, although survival rates are very low.
脊柱滑膜肉瘤是一种极其罕见的恶性肿瘤,预后较差。它在初诊时往往已发生转移。其相对罕见以及在组织学上与其他肿瘤相似,使得诊断具有挑战性,明确诊断需要免疫组织化学和细胞遗传学检查。手术是主要治疗手段,并辅以化疗,尽管生存率很低。
