ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the clinical pathological features of fibrosarcomatous dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (FS-DFSP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical history, histopathological features and immunohistochemical characteristics were analyzed in twelve cases of FS-DFSP from January 1997 to February 2011, and related literature were reviewed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Age of the patients (2 females, 10 males) at diagnosis ranged from 41 to 70 years (mean 53 years). Among the 12 cases of FS-DFSP, 9 cases aroused in recurrent ordinary DFSP. Histologically, FS areas in FS-DFSP were characterized by a fascicular and highly cellular histology, frequently showing a characteristic herringbone pattern. FS-DFSP showed diminishment of CD34 staining in FS areas. The labeling index of Ki-67 was much higher in the FS areas (10%-40%) than that in the conventional DFSP areas (2%-5%). All the patients were treated by operation with local excision or wide excision. Postoperative radiotherapy and chemotherapy was administered in two cases respectively. Follow-up information in 9 of 12 patients (9 to 86 months) revealed local recurrence in 6 patients. Distant metastases were seen in two patients. One patient was died in the follow up period.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>FS-DFSP is a rare and unique subtype of DFSP and is associated with significant elevated risk of both local and distance metastasis, usually followed by poor outcome. Compared to ordinary DFSP as a borderline neoplasm, FS-DFSP should be considered as a malignant tumor.</p>
