ABSTRACT
Synovial sarcoma is a rare soft tissue sarcoma which frequently involves the upper or lower extremities. Soft tissue sarcomas including synovial sarcoma have a propensity to metastasize to the lungs, and there are very few reports of metastatic lesions in other locations.Here, we report a case of a 49-year-old patient who underwent neoadjuvant chemoradiation for an upper extremity synovial sarcoma and presented approximately 4 years later with abdominal pain and hemoperitoneum and was ultimately found to have metastatic synovial sarcoma involving the greater curvature of the stomach and surrounding peri-gastric soft tissue. We describe the multidisciplinary management of this complex patient presentation and propose that expanded surveillance imaging beyond that of the local tumor resection bed and the chest may be beneficial especially in tumors with high-risk features.
