Metastatic Fibrosarcomatous Transformation of Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans With Lung Metastasis: A Case Report [PDF]

Cureus
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a low- to intermediate-grade dermal soft tissue malignant tumor (sarcoma) with a high local recurrence rate but low metastatic potential. DFSP is characterized by uniform spindle cell fascicles arranged classically in a storiform pattern and by CD34 immunoreactivity. On gross examination, DFSP usually manifests

Late Transformation of a Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans Neck Sarcoma to a Neoplasm With Fibrosarcomatous Elements: Lessons Learned

Cureus, 2022
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a low-grade soft tissue sarcoma not often related to the head and neck area. Distant metastases are not often recorded. Wide surgical excision is considered the most appropriate treatment modality. In cases of insufficient or positive surgical margins, the role of adjuvant radiation therapy or targeted therapy might ...

Gains of COL1A1-PDGFB genomic copies occur in fibrosarcomatous transformation of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans [PDF]

Modern Pathology, 2006
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a superficial low-grade sarcoma that rarely evolves into a high-grade fibrosarcoma. Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is genetically characterized by the unbalanced chromosomal t(17;22)(q21;q13), usually in the form of a supernumerary ring chromosome.
