Abstract

Synovial sarcoma is rare soft tissue tumor mesenchymal origin. Osseous involvement of synovial sarco-ma is rare. A 24-year-old man presented with pain and swelling of the lower extremity. MRI of the lower extremity demonstrated a large mass encircling tibia with osseous involvement. Surgical excision of the mass was done and the mass was diagnosed as biphasic synovial sarcoma with bone marrow involvement. We also discuss the other imaging findings of synovial sarcoma on MRI.
