Dermatomyofibroma*

چکیده
We report a case of dermatomyofibroma that, to our knowledge, is the second case reported in Brazil. About 100 cases have been reported worldwide. Dermatomyofibroma represents a rare, benign mesenchymal neoplasm of fibroblastic/myofibroblastic differentiation, with prolonged evolution and little or no symptoms. It most commonly occurs in young women and male children. Dermatomyofibroma can be easily confused with other clinical entities, which could lead to unnecessary treatments. Therefore, it is important that dermatologists and pediatricians suspect and start to consider this hypothesis in their diagnostic exercises.

These lesions develop most frequently in young female patients at a mean of 28-years-of-age. Herein, a case of dermatomyofibro...

Ultrastructural studies and immunophenotyping have shown these cells to be fibroblasts and myofibroblasts. The immunohistochemical profile is very variable, although vimentin is frequently expressed. CD34 expression has been reported in some cases; this can complicate the diagnosis as dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans must then be considered in the differential diagnosis. Immunohistochemistry is ...
