[Three different tumors in a case of synovial sarcoma of the hand]

Examining a 74 year old female patient with a nodular goiter, a tumor of the left thenar eminence with a concurrent radiolucent swelling in the adjoining second metacarpal was found. The diagnosis was a struma nodosa with regressive marginal changes, a hypervascularized monophasic synovial sarcoma of the wrist joint, and an enchondroma of the second metacarpal bone. Following the amputation of the forearm, no radiotherapy or cytotoxic therapy was performed. After a follow-up time of one year no metastases were detected.
