Abstract
It is a sarcoma whose cells mimic the two types of cells (A and B) of the synovial membrane. As it is made up of two cellular types, it is called biphasic. When the biphasic aspect is totally absent, and the sarcoma is exclusively made up of fibroblastic cells (B), or epithelioid cells (A), diagnosis is difficult and doubtful (monophasic S.S.).
