Abstract
-
A 34-year-old male was admitted to our hospital complaining of chest pain. Chest computerized tomography showed pleural effusion and mass in left lower area. After open thoracotomy and mass removal originating from the parietal pleura were done. The mass was pathologically diagnosed as poorly differentiated synovial sarcoma. Synovial sarcoma of the pleura is rare. Herein we report a case of synovial sarcoma of the parietal pleura.
