متن کاملNodular Fasciitis Complicating a Staged Surgical Excision of Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an unusual spindle cell tumor with a high rate of local recurrence with traditional excision.

We present the unique case of a patient treated with a modified Mohs technique with an analysis...
