Six cases of synovial sarcoma were examined histochemically in order to clarify the components of mucosubstances in the tumor tissues. The tumors were classified into 1) monophasic type, 2) predominantly monophasic type with focal biphasic differentiation, and 3) biphasic type. The former two groups and sarcomatous areas in the biphasic tumors contained various amounts of hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate, and, in some cases, heparitin sulfate. By contrast, the epithelioid regions in the biphasic-type tumors had periodic acid-Schiff-positive glycoproteins which contained various amounts of sialic acid, in addition to hyaluronic acid and chondroitin sulfate. The significance of the presence of glycoproteins in the mesenchymal tumors is emphasized. It seems likely that the synovial sarcomas contain various kinds of mucosubstances and that sensitivity to hyaluronidase treatment is not necessarily the diagnostic criterion of synovial sarcoma.
