Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans

open access: yesCa-A Cancer Journal for Clinicians, 1992
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is an intermediate-grade sarcoma that arises in the dermis of the trunk, proximal extremities, and less commonly, in the head and neck area of adults. Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans has a deceptively innocuous early clinical appearance and generally exhibits an indolent course for years before entering a rapid growth ...

DERMATOFIBROSARCOMA PROTUBERANS

International Journal of Dermatology, 1996
Abstract Background. Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a locally aggressive soft tissue sarcoma in which recurrences are common. It usually affects middle‐aged individuals with the most common location being the trunk. Sex distribution varies among published series. Mohs surgery is the treatment of choice.

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans

Cancer, 2004
AbstractIn the current review, the authors set out to discuss the natural history and treatment of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), a rare indolent cutaneous tumor. Approximately 10–15% of all DFSPs contain areas of fibrosarcoma (DFSP‐FS), and such cases tend to exhibit more aggressive behavior.

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans

Dermatologic Therapy, 2008
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a rare cutaneous malignancy that is locally invasive, occurs mainly over the trunk and proximal extremities, and has a tendency to recur after wide local excision. The epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis, histology, and treatment options are discussed.

DERMATOFIBROSARCOMA PROTUBERANS

International Journal of Dermatology, 1995
Abstract Background. Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (dfsp) is an uncommon malignant tumor of the skin, the diagnosis of which can be difficult not only clinically but also histologically. The tumor has a low metastatic potential, but tends to recur locally if removal is incomplete. Methods.

Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans

The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1978
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a well‐differentiated sarcoma that rarely metastasizes but is characterized by a high recurrence rate. This is due to clinically undetectable, microscopic extensions into the surrounding dermis. Chemosurgery (Mohs) is effective in the ablation of this tumor because the extensions can be identified and eradicated.

Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans

Dermatologic Clinics, 2019
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an uncommon dermal neoplasm that exhibits a high rate of local recurrence and infiltrative behavior, but has a low risk of metastasis. It arises as a slowly progressive, painless pink or violet plaque. Histologically, DFSP is characterized by a monomorphous spindle cell proliferation in a storiform pattern. The

Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2016
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare superficial soft tissue sarcoma. Its rarity precludes large prospective studies. Clinical diagnosis requires an high index of suspicion. Effective management requires an appreciation of tumor biology and the nature of the characteristic infiltrative growth pattern. DFSP tends to recur locally, with a low
