Article Abstract
A case of primary synovial sarcoma of the jejunum was collected and analyzed retrospectively. A 19-year-old man who presented to hospital with abdominal pain. The CT scan showed a large mixed abdominal mass with bleeding. Laparotomy revealed that the tumor originated from the jejunum, accompanied by rupture and hemorrhage. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of spindle cells. The tumor cells demonstrated diffuse expression of vimentin, transducin-like enhancer (TLE)-1, B-cell lymphoma protein (Bcl)-2, CD99 and focal expression of epithelial membrane antigen (EMA). The presence of specific gene rearrangement was confirmed in tumor cells. The patient received 6 cycles of chemotherapy after jejunal tumor resection. And 12 months later, the patient presented pancreatic metastasis and had radiotherapy. The patient died 15 months after the diagnosis.

Synovial sarcomas are rare malignant soft tissue tumors with significant metastatic potential. Although they can occur in various parts of the body, they are most commonly found on the extremities. These tumors typically develop in children and young adults, making occurrences in individuals over 50 years of age unusual.

These tumors predominantly affect young, active individuals, posing a significant challenge for oncologists and plastic surgeons in preserving the patients' quality of life.

The SS18::SSX oncogene is the driver of synovial sarcoma, an aggressive cancer presenting in young adults that has poor long-term outcomes. Over the past five years, significant progress has been made in understanding the molecular, genomic, and epigenetic mechanisms underlying synovial sarcoma. This review synthesizes recent advancements in synovial sarcoma, including diagnostic pathology, genomic profiling, SS18::SSX biology, epigenetic dysregulation, proteomics, targetable pathways and immunotherapy.

Aims: To investigate immunohistochemical expression of the E26 transformation-specific factors (ETS)-related gene () in a large number of soft tissue neoplasms using a tissue microarray technique.
Methods: 489 cases of soft tissue neoplasms, including benign and malignant entities, were collected from the files of the respective institutions and constructed into tissue microarrays. Tissue microarrays were stained for ERG immunohistochemistry using two antibodies, EP111 and EPR3864.
