Synovioma Malignant

Synovioma maligna (also known as synovial sarcoma or synovial sarcoma) is a rare type of malignant tumor that usually develops in joint capsules, synovial membranes and tendons. This tumor can occur at any age, but is most often diagnosed in young adults between 20 and 40 years of age.

Malignant synovioma has several different forms, which can affect its treatment and prognosis. The most common form is the monoplastic type of malignant synovioma, which usually appears as a single tumor located in the joint capsule or tissue around the joint. Another form is the pleiomorphic type of malignant synovioma, which is characterized by the presence of several different cell types within the tumor, which can complicate its treatment.

Symptoms of malignant synovioma can vary depending on its location and size. However, the most common symptoms are pain, swelling and limited movement in the joint, as well as new masses in the affected area.

Treatment for malignant synovioma usually involves surgical removal of the tumor, as well as the use of radiotherapy and chemotherapy to destroy remaining tumor cells. The prognosis depends on many factors, including the size of the tumor, its location and type, and the patient's response to treatment.

In general, malignant synovioma is a rare but serious disease that requires a comprehensive and individual approach to treatment. Early diagnosis and treatment can improve the patient's prognosis and quality of life. If you suspect the development of malignant synovioma, contact a specialist for further consultation and treatment.
