We report a case of 29-year-old female who presented with right heel pain that worsened over a period of two years. The onset of pain was followed by swelling at the medial aspect of right ankle. She was initially treated for plantar fasciitis with multiple steroid injections over the heel. Subsequent MRI revealed a well-defined heterogeneous lesion in continuity with the medial plantar nerve. Excision biopsy was performed and histopathological evaluation revealed monophasic synovial sarcoma. The patient subsequently underwent wide resection and free tissue transfer followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. This case highlights an unusual site and presentation of synovial sarcoma which led to delayed diagnosis and treatment.
