Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare slow-growing soft tissue tumour which characteristically occurs on the chest, head and neck regions. Typical histologic features include monomorphous spindle-shaped cells arranged in a storiform pattern on a background of fibrous stroma. The tumour has a propensity for local invasion and high recurrence rate. While the imaging features are not pathognomonic of the tumour, the characteristic location and shape should prompt inclusion in the differential diagnostic list.
