ABSTRACT
Objective: To emphasize the therapeutic and reconstructive
options available.
Method: We present a 59-year-old patient
with a tumor lesion in the frontal region of 11 years of evolution,
with 6 reoperations due to several recurrences, admitted with a
report of benign pathology, resected with wide safety margins
and closure with lateral advancement flap and complementary
total skin graft. The biopsy of the surgical specimen demonstrated
the existence of protuberant dermatofibrosarcoma.
Discussion: When a malignant lesion is suspected, the safety
margins must be taken into account, which in this case range
from 1 to 5 cm. The safest surgeries are wide local excision
with tumor-free margins and Mohs micrographic surgery.
The closure of the exposed area will be decided according to
age, location and availability of techniques. When there are
doubts about incomplete resection of the lesion, the use of an
autologous skin graft is preferred.
Conclusions: this malignant tumor, although infrequent, can
occur in plastic surgery patients who seek its cure with the
least possible deforming sequela. It is the responsibility of the
reconstructive surgeon to have knowledge of this entity and
its therapeutic options, to offer the best aesthetic result with
the lowest rate of recurrence.
