Abstract
Synovial sarcoma (SS) most commonly affects the lower limbs of males in the third to fifth decades of life, with masses of the head and neck accounting for 3–10% of all cases, mainly as a metastatic lesion. The lack of specific symptoms and radiological features in addition to the diversity of their microscopic aspects may cause confusion in the diagnosis; hence, knowledge of the unusual locations of SSs is very important. The immunohistochemistry, and more recently the cytogenetic studies, contribute to the differential diagnosis. We report the case of a 12-year-old girl with a rare primary SS in the suboccipital region, which underwent complete surgical resection.
