Key clinical message:
DERMATOFIBROSARCOMAPROTUBERANS (DFSP) is a rare recurrent
fibrohistiocytic tumor. Because of the rarity of the disease,
non-specific presentation and lack of Immunohistochemistry (IHC) its
diagnosis is often delayed and prompt treatment is deferred, which can
lead to complications such as recurrence and metastasis. Given the
limitation of available diagnostic modalities in a resource poor
setting, diagnosis can be confusing. As most of the tumors recur with
time, our case of complete cure was interesting phenomenon observed in
our case.
