Title: Chronic synovitis after synovial sarcoma resection: a case report. Author: Miljko M, Carapina M, Prlić J, Arapović D. Journal: Coll Antropol; 2010 Mar; 34 Suppl 1():291-4. PubMed ID: 20402336. Abstract: We present a diagnostic course and treatment of synovial sarcoma in a young 16-year-old male patient. The clinical course with special emphasis on the imaging techniques is presented here, providing an overview of this subject and offering a useful educative material. The course of the follow-up is also described, largely relying on MRI in diagnosis course. Changes in the synovial tissue of the knee were recorded, later to be classified as the sarcoma. Post-operative course suggested the existence of chronic synovitis. Further studies are needed to fully understand the changes that may affect knee mechanics after surgery and/or inflammation factors secreted by tumor cells.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
