description Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is an uncommon malignant mesenchymal tumor characterized by local invasion and recurrence. Fewer than 50 cases have been reported in the pediatric population. We reviewed our experience in the treatment of children with DFSP to define clinical and pathological characteristics. Seven pediatric patients were included in the study (mean age, 11.7 yr). Clinically, the tumors were described as firm nodules fixed to the skin but mobile over the deep fascia, with slow, progressive growth. Diagnosis was made by excisional biopsy in 6 patients and punch biopsy in 1 patient. Six of 7 patients had positive margins after the diagnostic procedure. Pathologically, diagnosis was based on histology, with confirmation by CD34 staining. Definitive surgical therapy consisted of wide local excision (1-3 cm margins) in 5 patients and Moh's micrographic resection in 2 patients. There have been no local recurrences or distant metastases, with a mean follow-up of 15.1 months. Pathological and clinical diagnostic criteria for the pediatric population are reviewed, and treatment options are discussed.
