Dermatofibrosarcoma Protuberans (DFSP) is an uncommon cutaneous soft tissue tumor. It is locally invasive and is known to recur. Metastases are rare and occur most commonly to the lungs. Metastasis to lymph nodes is extremely rare with only a few case reports in literature. The management strategy for such lymph node metastases remains controversial because of rarity of the condition. We report a case of DFSP of the lower limb with definite inguinal node secondaries managed by loco-regional surgery. We recommend that block dissection of lymph nodes should be performed in all cases with secondaries. J. Surg. Oncol. 1999;72;178-180.
