Abstract:
Synovial sarcoma is a malignant soft tissue tumor originated from the primitive mesencymal cell. It occurs primarily in the extremities, especially in the lower extremities. Primary pulmonary synovial sarcoma has been rarely reported in literatures. We experienced a case of intrapulmonary synovial sarcoma with brain metastasis which originated from the lung.
