“…Atrophic dermatofibromas have been observed worldwide; indeed, publications describing individuals with this lesion have originated from Argentina [15], Austria [9], Brazil [26], Canada [16], Cuba [14], France [12, 13], Germany [7], India [28], Italy [23], Japan [17, 18], Korea [20, 25], Mexico [11, 21], Portugal [27], Spain [8, 19], Turkey [22] and the United States [10, 24, 29, 30]. Most of the articles (14 of 24, 58%) on atrophic dermatofibromas describe one individual [10, 12, 13, 17–22, 24, 26, 28–30]; including our paper, two or three patients are reported in six manuscripts (25%) [8, 15, 16, 25, 27]. There are only four larger series (17% of the publications on atrophic dermatofibromas) which range from 15 to 26 patients [7, 9, 11, 23].…”
