A Retroperitoneal Calcified Mass: Synovial Sarcoma.

ABSTRACT

Retroperitoneal synovial sarcoma is an extremely rare and aggressive tumor. Although it does not have a typical radiological appearance, it can sometimes appear as a calcified mass. The most important step in the treatment of synovial sarcoma is complete resection. However, despite complete resection, local recurrence and systemic spread rates remain high, and chemo/radiotherapy may be considered in high-risk patients.
