Abstract
Cervicofacial synovialosarcoma is a malignant tumor. It poses a diagnostic and therapeutic problem. Synovialosarcoma has the strongest recurrence power among soft tissue sarcomas. These recurrences are more frequent during the first two years. Distant metastases are seen in 30% to 50% of cases and are mainly pulmonary.We report the observation of a young 38-year-old patient who was operated on in 2013 for synovialosarcoma oropharynx with radiotherapy postoperatively 6 years after the patient has two recurrences, one oropharyngeal and the other cervical.
