Özet
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a painless, slowly growing, rare skin tumor. It is most common in the trunk part of the body. It is frequently seen in the 40s. It is usually a low-grade sarcoma. DFSP, which is a locally benign-aggressive tumor, begins with a small size and may infiltrate the skin, subcutaneous adipose tissues, muscles and bones, and may recur despite extensive excision. It never metastasize without higher grade fibrosarcomatous changes. Although the benefit of chemotherapy and radiotherapy is limited, it can be applied in cases of recurrence or metastasis. We present a case of DFSP without skin lesions in a 46-year-old woman presenting with a slow-growing mass on her back. The mass was removed with a wide surgical margin. We aimed to emphasize that DFSP, which is very rare, can be seen without dermal involvement.
