Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans with fibrosarcomatous transformation*
To the Editor, Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an uncommon sarcoma of the skin and soft tissue with an intermediate level of malignancy. DFSP with fibrosarcomatous differentiation (FS-DFSP) is a rare variant of DFSP, involving greater aggression, higher rates of local recurrences and a higher metastatic potential. We describe the case of a 70-year-old woman who presented with a painle...
متن کاملDermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans: A Case Report
We present a typical case of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans with local recurrence 2 months after surgery and, motivated by this patient, make a review of the most important aspects. This is a rare tumor and we call special attention to the fact that its recurrence is extremely frequent, so there is absolute need to observe these patients periodically after surgery.
متن کاملA Fibrosarcomatous ("High-Grade") Variant of Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans (DFSP)
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a relatively uncommon soft tissue tumor with intermediate-to-low grade malignancy. There is usually little nuclear pleomorfism and only low to moderate mitotic activity. Conventional DFSP, usually have fewer than 5 mitotic figures/10 high-power fields. We describe a case of a 74year old male patient who presented to the surgical clinic with active bleed...
متن کاملFibrosarcomatous dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans: A case report of an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is a rare soft tissue neoplasm arising from mesenchymal cells, making up about 6% of all soft tissue tumours. Often found on the scalp, neck, trunk and extremities, it has an intermediateto low-grade malignancy potential except the fibrosarcomatous variant (high-grade), which is more likely to metastasize than other types. Here we present the case of a 46-year-ol...
متن کاملFibrosarcomatous Variant of Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans: An Aggressive Tumor - A Case Report
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an unusual, locally aggressive, cutaneous neoplasm of low to intermediate grade malignant potential. Fibrosarcomatous DFSP (FS-DFSP), a rare variant of DFSP, has got a higher tendency for recurrence and metastasis resulting in significant morbidity and reduced survival. We present a case of this rare malignancy in a 23-year-old female who presented with...
