Article Synopsis
- Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare type of cancer, mainly affecting adults, but can occur in infants, making diagnosis and treatment challenging due to its slow-growing nature.
- An 8-month-old infant was initially misdiagnosed with a dermatofibroma; after multiple surgeries, DFSP was confirmed, highlighting the importance of accurate early diagnosis.
- Early detection and careful surgical removal with clear margins are crucial for managing DFSP, especially in young patients, to prevent recurrence and improve outcomes.
