Episode Synopsis

Synovial Sarcomas are rare malignant tumors of soft tissue. Unlike most soft tissue sarcomas they are more likely to affect younger individuals. This tumor type is unique because of a common chromosomal translocation and mutation. They also have a high predilection of metastasis to lung and to the lymph nodes.
