Conservative Re-excision is a Safe and Simple Alternative to Radical Resection in Revision Surgery for Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans

Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a dermal sarcoma often diagnosed by excision biopsy, and is often incompletely excised, with high recurrence rates. Traditional wide excision involves resection margins of 2–4 cm, often resulting in morbid procedures requiring surgical reconstruction. An alternative is conservative re-excision (CRE), which results in narrower margins and less-frequent reconstruction. The aim of this study is to assess...
