Our case report represents a very rare occurrence of synovial sarcoma in the axilla with involvement of the brachial plexus. When clinical and radiological findings are suggestive of soft tissue sarcoma of the axilla, we recommend getting core-needle biopsy rather than fine-needle aspiration for earlier diagnosis. Early referral and multidisciplinary approach may contribute to better management.
