Synovial sarcomas are uncommon soft tissue tumours. Immunohistochemistry and cytogenetic techniques are essential for proper diagnosis and differentiation from other spindle cell neoplasms. A case of mediastinal synovial sarcoma is described, of which the unusual location, diagnosis and treatment form the basis of this report.
