Abstract
BackgroundPrimary diaphragmatic synovial sarcoma is a rare clinical entity with only few cases reported in the literature. It is found mainly in young adults, in the limbs. However, the name is a misnomer as it probably arises from primitive mesenchyme rather than articular surfaces of the joints.CaseWe report a case of 21‐year‐old patient with synovial sarcoma of the diaphragm, treated by complete surgical excision of the tumor with diaphragmatic reconstruction and confirmed on immunohistopathology. The peculiarity of this case stems from the atypical location of the tumor with complete surgical resection and thereby providing a better quality of life for the patient.ConclusionSynovial sarcoma of the diaphragm is a rare malignancy and more data and research is needed for defining the best management for this tumor.
