Darier and Ferrand's dermatofibrosarcoma: A carcinologic and cosmetologic challenge in a low-income country.

CONCLUSION: DFS is a common cancer with a good outcome if managed earliest. Delayed diagnoses and inadequate first-time surgery led to tumor extension and recurrences. Locally advanced tumors management needs extensive resections and reconstructive surgery. In addition to surgery, Imatinib and radiotherapy improve outcomes, but are not available in our context.
