Introdução: A pré-eclâmpsia (PE) é uma síndrome específica da gravidez, associado a morbimortalidade materna e perinatal. Métodos: Estudo retrospectivo descritivo das 134 gestações com PE grave, seguidas na nossa instituição de 2003 a 2005, com o objectivo de avaliar as repercussões maternas e fetais desta patologia. Resultados: Na maioria dos casos houve repercussão sistémica, manifestada por sintomatogia (79%) e valores laboratoriais indicativos de gravidade clínica. Os dados ecográficos revelaram 22,7% de restrição de crescimento intra-uterino e 21,3% de fluxometria doppler patológica. Decidiu-se interromper electivamente a gravidez em 95,3% dos casos, 60,5% nas primeiras 48h, sendo a síndrome materno a principal indicação. Verificaram-se 4 abortos e 5 mortes fetais. O parto ocorreu antes das 34 semanas em 63,1% dos casos. Em 82,8% a via de parto foi cesariana. Salientam-se 4 casos de insuficiência renal aguda e 2 casos de acidente vascular cerebral hemorrágico com morte materna. 20% dos recém-nascidos eram leves para a idade gestacional e verificou-se asfixia neonatal em 7,7%. Conclusão: A pré-eclâmpsia grave continua a ser uma patologia com implicações importantes no desfecho obstétrico.

INTRODUCTION: Synovial sarcoma is a high-grade, soft-tissue sarcoma that most frequently is located in the vicinity of joints, tendons or bursae, although it can also be found in extra-articular locations. Most patients with synovial sarcoma of the hand are young and have a poor prognosis, as these tumors are locally aggressive and are associated with a relatively high metastasis rate. According to the literature, local recurrence and/or metastatic disease is found in nearly 80% of patients. Current therapy comprises surgery, systemic and limb perfusion chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. However, the 5-year survival rate is estimated to be only around 27% to 55%. Moreover, most authors agree that synovial sarcoma is one of the most commonly misdiagnosed malignancies of soft tissues because of their slow growing pattern, benign radiographic appearance, ability to change size, and the fact that they may elicit pain similar to that caused by common trauma. CASE PRESENTATION: We describe an unusual case of a large synovial sarcoma of the hand in a 63-year-old Caucasian woman followed for 12 years by a multidisciplinary team. In addition, a literature review of the most pertinent aspects of the epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of these patients is presented. CONCLUSION: Awareness of this rare tumor by anyone dealing with hand pathology can hasten diagnosis, and this, in turn, can potentially increase survival. Therefore, a high index of suspicion for this disease should be kept in mind, particularly when evaluating young people, as they are the most commonly affected group.
