Abstract:
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans is an unusual locally aggressive cutaneous neoplasm of low grade malignancy. We report the case of a 47 years- old male who presented with an asymptomatic erythematous firm protruding mass in the left peri-inguinal area. Histopathologically, the tumor showed spindle-shape cells, arranged in a storiform pattern. The tumor cells stained positively for Vimentin and CD34 on immunohistochemical staining. Herein, we report a case of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans.
