Six years prior to the presentation, she suffered from gradual loss of head, axillary and pubic hair as well as skin laxity in the axillary, inguinal and intermammary region, and diagnosed with granulomatous slack skin associated with folliculotropic granuloma fungoides. Then, she received six sessions of chemotherapy with cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine and prednisone （CHOP）. Additionally, long-term oral prednisone （30 － 40 mg per day） was administrated before and after the diagnosis. Half a year prior to the presentation, more than 10 elevated nodules gradually appeared in bilateral lower limbs, chest and back. Pathology of one of the nodules revealed a well-defined nodular lesion without capsules in the subdermis, composed of spindle and oval cells arranged in a storiform pattern as well as a small number of giant cells without obvious atypia, which was suggestive of dermatofibroma. The final diagnosis was multiple eruptive dermatofibromas. The patient was managed with a watch-and-wait strategy, and follow-up was under way.
