  • Title: Delayed diagnosis of synovial sarcoma of the foot.
    Author: Brewster MB, Power D, Sumathi VP.
    Journal: Orthopedics; 2008 Feb; 31(2):175. PubMed ID: 19292193.
    Abstract:
    Soft tissue sarcomas are relatively rare in the population, rarely encountered by the average orthopedic surgeon, and may only be seen once in a lifetime by a general practitioner. Although rare, it is a serious condition that, if diagnosed early, can result in improved prognosis. This article presents a case of a delayed diagnosis of a soft tissue sarcoma and highlights possible pitfalls and causes for such delays in hope of educating and reducing such incidences in the future.
