Insidious Synovial Sarcoma of Bone in a Patient with Rheumatoid Arthritis
Article in several languages: português | English
Abstract
Synovial sarcoma is a rare malignity of mesenchymal origin; the diagnostic approach usually begins by documenting a soft tissue tumor; however, it results in a challenging diagnosis when it is more profound, of small size, or primary from the bone.
The present report describes a patient who presented insidious onset hip pain attributed to rheumatoid arthritis, with a fatal outcome due to baseline disease and surgery complications.
The underestimation of hip pain, mainly when there is no palpable mass, may delay the diagnosis.
Study carried out at the Hospital de Especialidades Dr. Antonio Fraga Mouret, Centro Médico Nacional La Raza del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, Mexico City, Mexico.
