  • Title: Polypoid dermatofibroma with a slim pedicle: a case report.
    Author: Kai H, Fujita H, Yamamoto M, Asahina A.
    Journal: Dermatol Online J; 2012 Mar 15; 18(3):16. PubMed ID: 22483527.
    Abstract:
    Dermatofibroma, also called cutaneous fibrous histiocytoma or sclerosing hemangioma, is a fairly common, benign cutaneous tumor. Polypoid dermatofibroma is an unusual and poorly recognized form of this entity. We describe a peculiar case of this variant presenting with a unique morphology characterized by a round flat shape with a slim pedicle, although its histopathological picture was rather typical of that of ordinary dermatofibroma.
