Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans

Despite optimal surgical therapy for patients with dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), some patients still continue to develop local recurrence. The authors' objective was to identify and analyze clinicopathologic factors for disease free survival in a large group of patients who were followed prospectively at a single institution.
