Congenital dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans with fibrosarcomatous and myxoid change.
This report describes a case of congenital dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) with fibrosarcomatous (FS) and myxoid areas. Immunohistochemical results showed that tumour cells in ordinary DFSP areas were diffusely positive for CD34, whereas in the FS and myxoid areas, few tumour cells were positive for this antigen. Ki-67 positive tumour cell numbers were greater in the FS (11.8%) and myxoi...
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 کاملA Case of Myxoid Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a slowly growing dermal spindle cell tumor and its myxoid variant, a rare type of DFSP, is characterized by extensive myxoid degeneration. We present the case of a 69-year-old woman with a multinodular reddish plaque on her trunk. Histopathologically, the tumor was located in the dermis and consisted of uniform spindle-shaped cells, showing strongly pos...
متن کاملCongenital Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans: A Case Report and Literature Review.
Congenital dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an extremely rare skin tumor that is commonly misdiagnosed, or is often diagnosed long after the initial presentation. Although many cases of DFSP are diagnosed in adulthood, there are some differences between adult DFSP and congenital DFSP. We report a case of congenital DFSP that was initially misdiagnosed as a simple vascular lesion. The d...
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...
