Clinical, dermoscopic, radiological and histopathological features of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans

Abstract

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare soft tissue tumour commonly affecting young adults. It is an intermediate-grade malignancy that rarely metastatizes, but has a high recurrence rate. Diagnosis is established by histopathology.1 Here, we describe a typical presentation of DFSP in a woman and the utility of dermoscopy and radiologic imaging in the diagnosis and management.
