Primary renal synovial sarcoma(PRSS) is a rare entity. It should be considered as one of the differential diagnoses of spindle cell tumors of the kidney. Immunohistochemistry and genetic translocation studies should be used to confirm the diagnosis. Due to lack of consistent literature data regarding the treatment options, it remains a therapeutic challenge. In view of chemosensitive nature of the tumor, we propose multimodality treatment in form of surgery and chemotherapy in these patients. Here we report a rare case of PRSS in a 17 year old female.
