Synovial sarcoma (SS) is a malignant soft tissue tumor comprising 5-10% of all soft tissue sarcomas. This tumor normally occurs in the paraarticular regions of the extremities but is rare in head and neck sites. SS is sometimes difficult to diagnose because it can mimic benign lesions both clinically and radiologically. This paper presents a rare case of a SS of the buccal space of a 25-year old man. The histology examination and immunohistochemistry of the mass led to a diagnosis of synovial sarcoma. The patient was treated primarily with a surgical resection, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The follow up examination 17-months after surgery showed no signs of tumor relapse or metastasis. KCI Citation Count: 0
