 Synovial sarcomas comprise up to 10 percent of malignant soft tissue tumors, and most are characterized by the chromosomal translocation t(X;18) (pl 1.2;q11.2), which results in the expression of SYT-SSX fusion transcripts.     ///    "Moreover, we observed a correlation between histological subtype and type of SYT-SSX fusion transcript. "    ///    "We also developed a method useful for RT-PCR SYT-SSX fusion transcript detection in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue. "    ///    We found that both histological subtypes of synovial sarcoma were SYT-SSX positive.
