Abstract

Synovial sarcomas in head and neck region are extremely rare and have an aggressive nature and an unpredictable prognosis. The principles of management are still controversial, and a multidisciplinary approach is essential in managing Synovial sarcomas. We present a case report here for its rarity along with a brief review of literature.
