Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, abbreviated DFSP, is a rare locally aggressive tumour of the skin.
General
- Dermal location.
- Destroys adnexal structures.
- Occasionally transforms to a (more aggressive) fibrosarcoma.[1]
Treatment:[2]
- Wide excision.
- May include imatinib (Gleevec).
Gross
Features:[3]
- Firm plaque, often bosselated, usually on the trunk.
- +/-Ulceration.
Images:
- Protuberant DFSP (dermatlas.med.jhmi.edu).
- Huge DFSP on back (dermatlas.med.jhmi.edu).
- Protuberant DFSP - gross and histology (dermatlas.med.jhmi.edu).
Microscopic
Features:[2]
- Dermal spindle cell lesion with storiform pattern.
- Spokes of the wheel-pattern.
- Contains adipose tissue within the tumour -- key feature.
- Described as "honeycomb pattern" and "Swiss cheese pattern".
Notes:
- Adnexal structure within tumour are preserved -- this is unusual for a malignant tumour -- important.
DDx:
- Dermatofibroma - main DDx - has entrapment of collagen bundles at the edge of the lesion.
- Dermatomyofibroma.[4]
- Nodular fasciitis.
DDx of storiform pattern:
- DFSP.
- Dermatofibroma.
- Solitary fibrous tumour.
- Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma.
Images
DFSP with fat entrapped. (WC)
DFSP - high mag. (WC)
DFSP - storiform pattern - intermed. mag. (WC/Nephron)
DFSP - storiform pattern - very high mag. (WC/Nephron)

IHC
Panel:[5]
- CD34 +ve.
- Factor XIIIa -ve.
- S-100 -ve (screen for melanoma).
- Caldesmin -ve (screen for muscle differentiation).
- Beta-catenin. (???)
- MIB1 (proliferation marker).
- Should not be confused with MIB-1 a gene that regulates apoptosis.
Molecular
A characteristic translocation is seen:[8] t(17;22)(q22;q15) COLA1/PDGFB.
