Dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) is a rare slow-growing skin cancer with a great capacity for local destruction. DFSP can manifest in a myriad of ways. This case report aims to contribute to the literature by increasing awareness of this condition, along with common diagnostic practices and treatment regimens. We present a 52-year-old Filipino woman who was evaluated for dyspnea with an incidental finding of an indeterminate nodule on imaging. A comprehensive diagnostic workup confirmed dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), which was ultimately treated with surgical resection. Clinically, about 52% of patients are misdiagnosed, leading to poor outcomes. Therefore, awareness, early detection, multidisciplinary treatment, and lifelong screening are essential for optimal outcomes.
