SYNOPSIS

Case Presentation by HKU-SZ Team

A 12-year-old Chinese boy presented with a painful right axillary mass with multiple enlarged lymph nodes. MRI examination was performed in another hospital, and the diagnosis was synovial sarcoma. The diagnosis of pathological examination combined with NGS suggested AFH. After 2 cycles chemotherapy, PET-CT showed a hypermetabolic nodule in liver, while MRI revealed multiple nodules in liver. MRI examination was rechecked one month later, and no lesions were found in the liver. A 12-year-old Chinese boy presented with a painful right axillary mass with multiple enlarged lymph nodes.
