Darier-Ferrand Dermatofibrosarcoma of the Chin: A Case and Review of the Literature
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Medical Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 9
Abstract
Darier-Ferrand Dermatofibrosarcoma is a rare but not exceptional malignant cutaneous mesenchymal tumor, representing 0.1% of malignant skin tumors and less than 5% of adult soft tissue sarcomas. We report a case of unusual localization of a Darier-Ferrand dermatofibrosarcoma of the chin that’s been developing for 2 years in 45-year-old patient. The clinical examination showed a rounded mass of firm consistency. The surgical resection was complete. Histological examination of the operative specimen confirmed the diagnosis of Darier-Ferrand dermatofibrosarcoma with healthy exeresis limits. The coverage of the loss of substance has been achieved.
