ABSTRACT
Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is best regarded as well differentiated, primary fibrosarcoma of skin. It is an uncommon, slow growing, locally aggressive, and reoccurring but rarely metastasizing tumor of the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue. Clinically they present as firm solid nodules that arise most frequently on trunk and extremities. DFSP of the breast has been rarely reported. Here, we report a rare case of DFSP of the breast in 47-year-old woman.
ABSTRACT
The skin metastasis of follicular variant of papillary carcinoma thyroid (FVPTC) is a rare condition and the lesions should be differentiated from primary skin tumors. The scalp is the most frequent site which is involved in skin metastasis of FVPTC. It shows the poor outcome and aggressive nature of the disease. In this report, we aim to present a case report of a 65 year –old female with scalp metastasis of FVPTC highlighting the fact that a solitary cutaneous lesion may be the first evidence of disseminated malignancy in a patient with occult papillary thyroid carcinoma.
