Primary synovial sarcoma of the penis--case report and literature review

Urogenital synovial sarcoma is an exceedingly rare lesion that can be clinically confused with chronic inflammatory masses and granulomas, squamous cell carcinoma, malignant melanoma or metastatic tumours. We present a case of primary synovial sarcoma of the penis in a 29-year-old Egyptian male. This case report is, to the best of our knowledge, the first report in the medical literature. A review of other penile sarcomas is included with a description and discussion of their pathological and clinical manifestations.
