Abstract
- Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans(DFSP) is an uncommon, raised, fibrous tumor of the skin characterized by a marked tendency to recur locally infrequent metastasis and difficulty of histologic diagnosis. There are several cases reporting origin of this tumor in a previous burn or surgical scar raised the question of a causal relationship. The authors report a case of DFSP, developed in an old burn scar of a 58-year-old man. There was no evidence of metastasis.
