ABSTRACT
Different types of cutaneous dermatofibromas have been described. In the literature, we have only found one case with osseous metaplasia. We present an ossifying cutaneous dermatofibroma with the clinical peculiarities of a size bigger than 1 cm, being very painful and it appearance initially in ayoung male.
