NCIt definition : A malignant neoplasm characterized by the chromosomal translocation t(X;18)(p11;q11).
It can occur at any age, but mainly affects young adults, more commonly males. Although
any site can be affected, the vast majority of the cases arise in the deep soft tissues
of extremities, especially around the knee. Microscopically, synovial sarcoma is classified
as monophasic (with a spindle or epithelial cell component) or biphasic (with both
spindle and epithelial cell components). Synovial sarcomas can recur or metastasize
to the lungs, bones, and lymph nodes.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A malignant tumor that develops in the synovial membrane of the joints.; CDISC: A malignant neoplasm that usually arises in the synovial membranes of the joints
and the synovial cells of the tendons and bursae.;
