    Correct answer:

    Synovial sarcoma.

    This probably was a bit too hard, because it usually occurs in the joints of the arm, neck or leg.

    It's called synovial sarcoma, because some thought it has microscopic similarity of some synovial tumours. However, the actual cells from which the tumour develops are unknown and not necessarily synovial.
