Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans: a population‐based cancer registry descriptive study of 66 consecutive cases diagnosed between 1982 and 2002

Abstract

Our study emphasizes the importance of wide local excision with margins of at least 3 cm in order to prevent local recurrence. However, the recent development of inhibitors of signal transduction by the PDGFB pathway should soon modify the surgical strategy, which is often too mutilating.
