Recurrence of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans of the vulva. A clinical, histological, and ultrastructural study

Eur J Gynaecol Oncol. 1993;14(3):182-6.

Abstract

Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans of the vulva is an extremely rare low grade sarcoma of the dermis. Wide local excision is the recommended treatment while a more radical surgery may be needed in cases of recurrences. Follow up must be prolonged for a long time since tumors may recur even after considerable period.
