Synovial sarcoma (SS) accounting for 6%-10% of primary soft tissue malignancies mainly occurs in deep soft tissue adjacent to joints of the limbs. Primary pulmonary SS (PPSS) is rare and has a poor prognosis. Cases of secondary distant metastases of PPSS occur rarely and there is a lack of corresponding imaging reports. We summarized the imaging findings of PPSS with multiple metastases confirmed by surgery and pathology, and shared valuable information on PPSS.
