Risk calculators and risk factors for Dermatofibroma classification

Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1];Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Homa Najafi, M.D.[2]

Overview

Dermatofibroma may be classified according to histopathology into three groups, variants that are prominent in architectural (low-power) properties, variants that are prominent in cytologic or stromal (high-power) properties, and variants that have architectural (low) and cytological or stromal (high-power) properties.

Classification

Dermatofibroma may be classified according to histopathology into three groups:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]

  • Variants that are prominent in architectural (low-power) properties
  • Variants that are prominent in cytologic or stromal (high-power) properties
  • Variants that have architectural (low) and cytological or stromal (high-power) properties
