Introduction And Importance: Darier-Ferrand dermatofibrosarcoma (DFS) is a rare mesenchymal tumor with an aggressive local behavior, high local recurrence frequency and low metastatic potential. It commonly presents as a raised slowly growing mass. It usually occurs on trunk and proximal extremities but rarely touches distal extremities such as hands, fingers, or foot below knees.

Darier disease is an autosomal-dominant inherited condition caused by mutation of a gene, which produces a protein involved in calcium channel regulation. The disease has a variety of manifestations and lacks consistent genotype-phenotype correlations. Acral hemorrhagic Darier disease causes macules, papules, vesicles and/or hemorrhagic blisters on the extremities.

Type 1 segmental Darier's disease is a blaschkolinear variant of Darier's disease resulting from a postzygotic mosaicism. Since it usually lacks diagnostic clues typical of the generalized form, including positive family history of the disease, nail and mucosal abnormalities, and/or acral involvement, its distinction from other acquired inflammatory blaschkolinear dermatoses may often be quite challenging, thus requiring histopathological examination to reach a definitive diagnosis. We report a case of type 1 segmental Darier's disease with its dermoscopic findings in order to show the usefulness of dermoscopy in assisting the noninvasive identification of this condition.
