Synovial sarcoma is a rare soft tissue tumor of children and adults that is unrelated to
synovium and can occur in almost any part of the body. The familiar biphasic synovial …

The present Update on synovial sarcoma (SS) follows the pattern of previous ones in that it
presents findings related to this tumor which have appeared since 1994 when our book was …

Recent exon sequencing studies have revealed that over 20% of human tumors have
mutations in subunits of mSWI/SNF (BAF) complexes. To investigate the underlying …

Human synovial sarcomas contain a recurrent and specific chromosomal translocation t (X;
18)(p11. 2; q11. 2). By screening a synovial sarcoma cDNA library with a yeast artificial …

Background Synovial sarcomas account for up to 10 percent of soft-tissue sarcomas and
include two major histologic subtypes, biphasic and monophasic, defined respectively by the …

Abstract NY‐ESO‐1, a member of the CT (cancer/testis) family of antigens, is expressed in
normal testis and in a range of human tumor types. Knowledge of NY‐ESO‐1 expression …

We demonstrate that the cytogenetically defined translocation t (X; 18)(p11. 2; q11. 2) found
in human synovial sarcoma results in the fusion of the chromosome 18 SYT gene to either of …

Endometrial stromal tumors are divided into three types: benign stromal nodules,
endometrial stromal sarcomas, and undifferentiated endometrial sarcomas. A variety of …

Synovial sarcomas are high‐grade malignant mesenchymal tumors with biphasic (BSS) and
monophasic (MSS) variants that carry a pathognomonic cytogenetic alteration, t (X; 18) …

Synovial sarcomas are rather common among soft‐tissue tumors, occurring at any age but
affecting mainly young adults. The vast majority of synovial sarcomas carries at (X; 18)(p11 …
