Learn About Synovial Sarcoma

What is the definition of Synovial Sarcoma?
Synovial sarcoma is a rare and aggressive soft tissue sarcoma. However, as the tumor grows larger, affected people may notice a lump or swelling. In some cases, the tumor can limit range of motion or cause numbness and/or pain if it presses on nearby nerves. Although Synovial sarcoma does not have a clearly defined cause, genetic factors are believed to influence the development of this disease. Cells in these tumors are usually characterized by the presence of a translocation involving chromosomes X and 18. This translocation is specific to Synovial sarcoma and is often used to diagnose the condition.
