Abstract
Dermatofibroma is a common benign fibrohistiocytic neoplasm, usually observed in adults, with a slight female predominance. The cause of dermatofibroma is still unknown, but it is widely accepted that dermatofibroma may result from a trauma such as an insect bite, rupture of a follicle, or a follicular cyst. Evidence of clonality has been recently reported in dermatofibroma, supporting the neoplastic nature of the tumor [4]. © 2007 Springer-Verlag.
