The surgical management of a hypogastric dermatofibrosarcoma protubrens
Abstract
Dermatofibrosarcoma protubrens (DFSP) is an uncommon skin tumor with intermediate grade of malignancy. Wide surgical resection with disease-free margin offers an excellent probability of cure. These large excision cause large skin defect that can be difficult to cover. Through this case report we describe a surgically treated DFSP that was covered by a Mc Gregor flap; which despite its seniority is still relevant and continues to serve plastic surgery.
