An unusual clinical presentation of myxoid dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans with a prominent vasculature: A potential pitfall in the diagnosis of myxoid soft tissue tumors.

abstract：AIM:In the absence of mites, the histologic diagnosis of human scabies can be difficult. Scabies can mimic a variety of inflammatory and lymphoproliferative disorders. It is under-recognized that scabies can also mimic Langerhans cell histiocytosis. METHODS:Sixteen examples of scabies were reviewed histologically and ...
