We herein present a case report and literature review of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans in the breast of a male patient. A 27-year-old man presented with a painless lump in his right breast with areas of bluish skin discoloration. The diagnostic work-up comprised clinical examination, ultrasonography, core biopsy, mammography, and magnetic resonance imaging. After surgical excision, the preoperative diagnosis of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans was proven by pathological examination and immunohistochemistry. The patient was still free of recurrence 1 year after surgical excision. This extremely rare case is, to the best of our knowledge, the fifth such case reported in the literature.
我们在此报告一例男性患者乳腺隆突性皮肤纤维肉瘤的病例,并进行文献复习。一名27岁男性患者右乳出现无痛性肿块,伴有皮肤青紫色区域。诊断性检查包括临床检查、超声检查、芯针活检、乳腺X线摄影和磁共振成像。手术切除后,病理检查和免疫组化证实术前诊断为隆突性皮肤纤维肉瘤。手术切除1年后,患者仍无复发。据我们所知,这一极其罕见的病例是文献报道的第五例此类病例。
