Synovial sarcoma is a rare entity to be encountered in the head and neck region and is always a challenge in terms of diagnosis, treatment planning and reconstruction of the surgical defect. In our case, we faced a similar challenge for diagnosis and also have ventured for lateral trapezius flap as a new reconstructive option for such bulky tumour defects. We hereby present a 25-year old male patient with monophasic synovial sarcoma of posterior pharyngeal wall. The radiological and clinicopathological features along with various diagnostic tests and treatment options are discussed.
