Pulmonary Synovial Sarcoma: A Rare Primary Lung Tumor

摘要

We report a 32-year-old female patient who presented with complaints of cough, chest pain and dyspnea for the past one and a half month and hemoptysis for one week. Work up for tuberculosis was negative. Chest X-ray demonstrated a homogenous opacity in the left middle and lower zones. CT scan chest described a heterogeneously enhancing mass in the left hemithorax with well-circumscribed smooth margins. Patient was transferred to the surgical ward where a left-sided thoracotomy and left lower lobectomy was performed. Histopathology confirmed the diagnosis of pulmonary synovial sarcoma. Post-operatively, she received adjuvant external beam radiotherapy and remains well at 6 months follow-up.
