Study design: Case Report
Abstract: Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans DFSP is a rare, locally aggressive, soft tissue sarcoma of the skin with a low to intermediate malignancy rate. This article presents a case report of a 40yearold female with a DFSP lesion on her left breast, progressing over six months. Diagnosis was confirmed through cytology, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry, highlighting spindle cell prolif-eration and positive CD34 and Vimentin markers. The tumors clinical features, diagnosis methods, and treatment strategies, includ-ing surgical excision and adjuvant therapy, are discussed. Early detection and complete resection are vital for reducing recurrence rates and improving patient outcomes.
