Endoscopic spine discectomy: indications and outcomes.

abstract：:We have reviewed 20 cases of synovial sarcoma. The main clinical and pathological features of these cases are outlined. Typically these tumours arise in the leg in young adults with a long history before presentation and diagnosis. Clinical and radiological findings are unhelpful in making an early diagnosis. The five...
