Core Tip

Core Tip: We describe a patient with 1-month history of gradual painless proptosis and lacrimation of the right eye. The patient underwent anterior orbitotomy procedure for removal of the right orbital mass under general anesthesia. The diagnosis of monophasic synovial sarcoma with calcification was confirmed finally through histological and immunohistochemical exam. The follow-up period was 6 mo, and no recurrence was observed during this period. This case illustrates the tumor may present similar features as a benign tumor. Comprehensive analysis of clinical, radiological, and pathological findings is critically important for making the right diagnosis.
