title: Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans: ultrastructural and immunocytochemical observations.
abstract: In an attempt to elucidate the histogenesis of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, 38 specimens were examined by electron microscopy and immunocytochemistry. The cumulative evidence strongly favors a fibroblastic/myofibroblastic derivation.
