2 Fig. 1 Pleural monophasic synovial sarcoma. Selected sections of conventional CT scan of chest from patient 1 showing large peripheral homogeneous soft tissue mass growing within pleural cavity.

3 Fig. 2 Synovial sarcoma, monophasic type. Hematoxylin and eosin-stained section from patient 1 depicting monophasic synovial sarcoma (original magnification ×40). Tumor cells are plump, spindle-shaped, and arranged in short fascicles, typical of classic monophasic variant.

4 Fig. 3 Synovial sarcoma, monophasic type. Hematoxylin and eosin-stained section from patient 2 depicting poorly differentiated monophasic synovial sarcoma with round cells showing high nucleus-to-cytoplasm ratio and absence of fascicular growth (original magnification ×40).

5 Fig. 4 Synovial sarcoma, biphasic type. Hematoxylin and eosin-stained section from patient 3. Tumor is biphasic and shows glandular epithelium interspersed among spindle-shaped cells (original magnification ×40).

6 Fig. 5 FISH analysis. A, Patient 1, interphase nucleus with normal hybridization pattern for CEPX (orange) and YAC770c4 (green). B, Patient 2, interphase nucleus with abnormal hybridization pattern of colocalized YAC770c4 (green) and CEPX (orange) signals indicating 5(X;18).
