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

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

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 in Children

Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2022
Paediatric dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare soft tissue malignant tumour which displays aggressive local behaviour and has low metastatic potential. The diagnosis is often delayed as DFSP is usually mistaken for other skin conditions, particularly in the early stages of disease.

Congenital Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans

Pediatric Dermatology, 1993
Abstract: Congenital dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans occurred in a 16‐year‐old girl. The lesion was a hard cutaneous plaque on the abdomen. It was present at birth and slowly enlarged during the patient's lifetime. Histologic examination was essential to establish the diagnosis and to differentiate it from other congenital fibrohistiocytic ...
