Abstract

Three cases of dermatofibrosacoa protuberans on the scalp of young women are presented. The scalp is a rare but important anatomic site for this tumor because of the possibility of direct invasion into the skull and brain. The use of DNA analysis to predict biologic aggressiveness of a tumor is discussed.
