Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery is the standard treatment for genital extramammary Paget disease (gEMPD). OBJECTIVE To determine if gEMPD treatments and outcomes differ by sex and US region. METHODS A systematic review was performed of all English-language studies on initial gEMPD treatment in Medline via PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and ClinicalTrials.gov. At least 2 reviewers performed title and abstract review and data extraction. Surgical categories included total skinning procedures, partial skinning procedures, Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS), or unspecified surgery. Chi-squared tests of association were used for comparisons. RESULTS A total of 60 studies comprising 302 (79.7%) female and 77 (20.3%) male patients met criteria. Women were most often initially recommended partial skinning procedures. In all, 74 (24.5%) women and 0 men underwent a total skinning procedure. Men were more likely to be offered MMS than women (40.3% vs 1.9%, P < .0001), despite men having a significantly greater extent of disease involving the perineum and perianal skin (21.1% vs 1.7%, P < .0001). Treatment recommendations varied by US region. LIMITATIONS Only 20 states were represented. CONCLUSION Women are more frequently offered total skinning procedures for gEMPD while men are more frequently offered MMS. MMS offers less recurrence and morbidity than total skinning procedures and should be recommended equally to both female and male patients with gEMPD.

Abstract
RATIONALE Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is a rare skin cancer that commonly occurs in sites rich in apocrine glands, such as perineum, vulva, axilla, scrotum, and penis. On the other hand, condyloma acuminatum (CA; also referred to as anogenital warts) is a common benign neoplasm caused by human papillomavirus. Few cases of coexistent EMPD and CA have been reported because of the rarity of the condition. PATIENT CONCERNS AND DIAGNOSIS A 72-year-old man with a genital mass, which appeared to be composed of multiple papillomatous masses, was referred for surgical resection. The lesion was first noticed 6 months previously and grew rapidly. CO2 ablative laser therapy was performed twice at a primary clinic, but the mass recurred. INTERVENTION AND OUTCOMES Excisional biopsy revealed the presence of coexistent EMPD and CA. Additional wide excision was performed, and postoperative biopsy confirmed no residual tumor. Two years after surgery, no recurrence had occurred. LESSONS CA can co-occur with several types of skin malignancies, and a skin malignancy coexisting with CA is difficult to diagnose visually. Therefore, even if a skin lesion in the genital region is considered to be CA, we recommend punch biopsy before treatment because it can benefit prognosiss.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In recent years, photodynamic diagnosis (PDD) has been a technique that plays a pivotal role in visualizing tumor size during the assessment of surgery. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a developing treatment method apart from surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, and immunotherapy and is approved for several types of tumors and nonmalignant diseases. The purpose of this study was to illustrate the efficiency and safety of PDD-guided tumor excision combined with ALA-PDT in patients with extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD). METHODS In our study, 7 cases of EMPD were treated with PDD-guided tumor excision combined with ALA-PDT. After removal of the tumor detected by PDD, each tumor region was irradiated with 177 J/cm2 using a 635-nm laser for 15 min. Two to four ALA-PDT cycles were applied during and after surgery. EMPD was confirmed by biopsy. RESULTS PDD may forecast tumor margins in EMPD to guide surgery, and PDT has an inhibitory effect on tumor growth. There was no local recurrence in the follow-up of 2.9 years (range, 0.8-5 years). Only one patient experienced distant recurrence under the armpit. The patients with EMPD were able to complete the treatment protocol, with good results and no significant side effects. CONCLUSIONS The present study demonstrated an effective protocol using PDD for diagnosis and PDT for multiple therapies, showing potential as an alternative clinical treatment for EMPD.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Extramammary Paget's Disease (EMPD) is an uncommon intra-epithelial malignancy, affecting primarily apocrine gland-bearing skin. EMPD is often considered an orphan diagnosis given its rarity. This review provides a contemporary overview of EMPD management. RECENT FINDINGS The mainstay of EMPD treatment centers around a high index of suspicion to allow for an early and accurate diagnosis, wide local or Mohs micrographic surgical excision with care paid toward the margin status, and thoughtful consideration for lymphadenectomy in patients with clinically positive regional disease. There is currently no consensus regarding adjuvant therapies or systemic therapies although with ongoing improvements in tumor biology and genomics, including molecular pathways and alterations specific to EMPD, targeted or combinatorial therapies may be on the horizon. SUMMARY Clinicians caring for patients with EMPD should seek consultation from or if feasible, consider referral to high-volume, experienced centers with patients counseled and provided with frequent and close follow-up for disease recurrence or progression. Collaboration with groups such as the Global Society for Rare Genitourinary Tumors, and especially patient groups will be vital to designing trials and collaborative databases.

Abstract
Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) frequently extends beyond clinical borders, causing a high recurrence rate. Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) has been used for management of EMPD, but its efficiency is compromised by technical limitations inherent in MMS. To identify clinicopathologic parameters of predictive value regarding MMS final margin width (FMW) for EMPD, and provide some preliminary guidance in selecting initial surgical margin width for improved efficiency. This was a retrospective study of 150 consecutive EMPD patients who underwent MMS between 2013 and 2019. Clinicopathological parameters and surgical data were collected to construct a classification tree of FMW. A six-node classification tree with a sensitivity of 86.25% and a specificity of 48.57% was generated. Lesion width, disease duration and inflammation score were used to select subgroups of patients in whom optimal initial margin width may be recommended. Classification tree analysis may help identify important variables to consider when selecting MMS initial surgical margins for EMPD.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Paget disease is a rare neoplasm of the skin that mainly involves the vulvar region. Vulvar Paget's disease (VPD) can spread beyond the apparent edges of the lesion resulting in a high risk of involved surgical margins. Our aim is to verify the efficacy of a preoperative vulvo-vaginal intensive clock mapping in the prediction of the invasiveness and the extension of VPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS All consecutive patients with primary VPD referred to our institution from July 2005 to December 2018 were subjected to a preoperative intensive biopsy mapping (clock mapping) of the vulvo-vaginal area: inside and outside the vulvar skin visible lesion, according to o'clock positions, and in the vagina. Patients with positive biopsies "only inside" or "also beyond" the visible lesion were included, respectively, in Group A and B. Surgical excision was drawn passing by the points with negative histology. Pathological findings of mapping biopsies were compared with those from radical surgery. RESULTS A total of 28 women were enrolled. After clock mapping definitive histology: 17 (60.7%) and 11 (39.3%) patients were included in Group A and B. Definitive histology showed non-invasive, micro-invasive and invasive VPD, respectively, in 13 (46.4%), 11 (39.3%) and 4 (14.3%) patients, with 4 patients further upstaged. Overall, negative margins were found in 14 (50%) patients: 9 (32.1%) from Group A and 5 (17.9%) from Group B. In 23 cases (82.1%), clock mapping identified free surgical margins along the vulvo-perineal skin excision front. CONCLUSIONS Preoperative clock mapping emerged as potentially useful workup tool to predict invasiveness and extension of VPD, to tailor surgical excision.

Abstract
Extramammary Paget's disease is a rare condition, affecting 6.5% of all patients with Paget's disease. The most common extramammary site is the vulvar area. Although diagnosis in some patients is difficult to set, early diagnosis is of high importance in order to detect the irreversible progression of the lesion early and prevent distant metastasis. An 89-year-old female and a 69-year-old female presented within three months with an eczematous lesion with leukoplakia in the vulva. The incisional biopsy of the skin revealed extramammary Paget's disease. Both patients underwent a surgical wide local excision of the lesion and the specimens were sent for histopathological examination. Extramammary Paget's disease has a high potential for distant malignancies and local recurrence, dictating that surgical excision is the most efficient treatment. The rareness of the condition and the diagnostic difficulties underline the need for early skin biopsy, which is the most efficient diagnostic tool.

Abstract
A 78-year-old woman with a complaint of fecal incontinence was noted to have a perianal rash. Despite improvement of the incontinence with medical management, the rash persisted. She had no symptoms related to the rash, but due to its persistence after two years, she saw a dermatologist who performed a punch biopsy of the area. The biopsy revealed extramammary Paget’s disease that was positive for CAM5.2, CK7, and CDX2 and equivocal for CK20. On physical examination, she had a 2×3cm raised and erythematous lesion on the right buttock extending to the anal margin without anal canal involvement (see Figure 1 ). Subsequent work-up including upper endoscopy, colonoscopy, CT of the chest and abdomen and pelvis, and small bowel follow through was negative. This patient’s case was discussed at the multi-disciplinary conference, and wide local excision was recommended. The patient underwent wide local excision with healing via secondary intention. Closure was foregone due to the small size of the wound and the patient’s medical comorbidities. Pathological examination confirmed negative margins.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) poses treatment challenges. Invasive and noninvasive treatment modalities exist with variable success reported. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) is emerging as an adjuvant diagnostic tool. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the treatment of EMPD patients and the role of RCM. METHODS Prospective study. Demographic and tumor characteristics were recorded. Handheld-RCM was performed and correlated with histology. Treatment, clearance, pathology, and follow-up were all recorded. RESULTS Thirty-six EMPD lesions in 33 patients were included. Mean age was 71.7 years, and 23 were men. Mean number of surgical stages needed to clear margins was 1.9 (SD, 0.9; 1.0-3.0 stages), and mean margin needed to clear was 1.8 cm. Reflectance confocal microscopy correlated well with scouting punch biopsies (kappa, 0.93; p < .001). Disruption of the dermoepidermal junction was associated with invasive EMPD versus in situ (83.3% vs 25.9%) on histology (p = .01). LIMITATIONS Relatively small sample size. CONCLUSION Extramammary Paget disease is challenging, and lesion demarcation is of the utmost importance. Using a staged surgical excision approach, the mean margins needed were 1.8 cm, less than previously reported. Nonsurgical modalities, including radiation therapy, imiquimod, or photodynamic therapy can be considered if surgery is not pursued. Reflectance confocal microscopy is a valuable noninvasive imaging modality for the management of EMPD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the safety and efficacy of wide local excision combined with aminolevulinic acid (ALA) photodynamic therapy (PDT) for the treatment of scrotal Paget's disease in patients of advanced age. METHODS Data were collected for 16 patients (mean age, 68.44 years) with scrotal Paget's disease treated with wide local excision combined with ALA PDT and followed up from June 2014 to February 2018. Pathological examination after wide local excision confirmed Paget's disease. The patients underwent three courses of ALA PDT postoperatively and were followed up to determine the curative effect and complications in the short and middle term. RESULTS The disease duration ranged from 4 to 76 months (mean, 36 months). Ten patients underwent simple excision, six underwent skin flap transfer, and two required reoperations due to skin flap necrosis and infection. The patients were followed up for 3 to 42 months after ALA PDT, during which time two patients developed metastasis (recurrence rate, 12.50%). No other serious complications occurred during follow-up except for lower limb movement disorder in one patient (6.25%). CONCLUSIONS Wide local excision combined with ALA PDT shows good clinical efficacy and a low complication rate in patients of advanced age with scrotal Paget's disease.

Abstract
Extramammary vulvar Paget's disease is a very rare presentation of this disease, with few symptoms, whose initial complaint is the appearance of a slow-growing erythematous plaque in the anogenital region associated with pruritus. The evolution is chronic and the diagnosis is often late. Surgical excision is the main treatment and should be performed with wide margins, due to the high rate of local recurrence. Reconstruction is often complex, requiring the use of local or remote flaps. This manuscript presents the case report of a 65-year-old female patient, who had been suffering from pruritus in the vulvar region for 2 years and had a well-defined erythematous lesion, which showed no improvement with topical treatments and that was diagnosed as Paget's disease after biopsy. After surgical excision, reconstruction was performed using bilateral myofasciocutaneous flap of the gracilis muscle, with excellent aesthetic and functional results..

Abstract
Paget's disease can arise in the breast (mammary Paget disease) or in other locations (extramammary Paget disease) such as anogenital skin in both males and females (Paget disease of the vulva [PDV]). Underlying adenocarcinoma can be found in some cases. This study aims to report clinical aspects, surgical procedures, outcomes, and recurrences of patients with PDV.A retrospective chart review was conducted on patients with pathologically confirmed diagnosis of PDV managed at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, University of Bari, and the "Giovanni Paolo II" National Cancer Institute in Bari, between 1998 and 2018.Records of 24 cases of PDV were examined. Median age of the patients at diagnosis was 69.3 (range 38-84), diagnosis of synchronous cancer was made in 2 cases and in 2 other cases of metachronous disease. Three patients had previously been diagnosed with other oncological diseases. All patients underwent surgery including wide local excision (6), simple vulvectomy (8), and extended vulvectomy (10). Lymphadenectomy was performed in 2 cases and reconstructions with advancement flaps in 7 cases. Four patients were found to have invasive disease and 1 had inguinal node involvement. Positive margins were found in 11 patients. Wound dehiscence and urethral stenosis were found in 4 and 1 case each. Eight recurrences (33.33%) were observed, regardless of positive surgical margins.PDV has a low rate of malignancy but a high rate of recurrence. It should be diagnosed early to avoid repeated surgery and to reduce symptoms and morbidity.

Abstract
RATIONAL Perianal Paget's disease (PPD) is a very rare intraepithelial adenocarcinoma. Very few cases of PPD have been reported till date, so the treatment remains controversial and more experience is needed. PATIENT CONCERNS A 73-year-old female was admitted to several hospitals with diagnosed as "perianal eczema" in perianal lesion. After a variety of treatments, the patient's condition did not improve. DIAGNOSES Abdominopelvic computed tomography and rectal magnetic resonance imaging showed thickening of the soft tissue around the anus, with significant enhancement. Histologic examination revealed the state of Paget's cells. INTERVENTIONS Laparoscopic Extralevator Abdominoperineal Excision (ELAPE) surgery was performed at our department. OUTCOMES The patient recovered well. After 10 months, a check-up revealed that her perianal area was disease-free. LESSONS The aim of this report was to present the characteristics of PPD in order to improve its diagnosis and treatment. Laparoscopic ELAPE is a successful therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is a frequently used technique that provides total margin visualization for treatment of skin neoplasms. OBJECTIVE To provide a comprehensive review of MMS literature, focusing on its origins, evidence behind present-day uses of MMS, and future directions. METHODS A literature search was conducted using PubMed to identify articles pertaining to MMS. RESULTS The fresh frozen technique led to widespread use of MMS in the 1970s. One randomized controlled trial and several large prospective studies have demonstrated low recurrence rates for treatment of nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC). MMS, when compared with surgical excision, also achieved a statistically significant higher cure rate for treatment of recurrent NMSC. Studies have demonstrated low recurrence for the treatment of melanoma and melanoma in situ with MMS. MMS has also been shown to effectively treat several rare cutaneous neoplasms. The future of MMS is likely to include the adoption of noninvasive imaging, immunostaining, and digital technology. CONCLUSION Mohs micrographic surgery is an effective treatment modality for numerous cutaneous neoplasms. It has achieved statistically significant superiority to surgical excision for the treatment of recurrent and high-risk NMSC. The future is likely to see increased use of noninvasive imaging, immunostaining, and digital technology.

Abstract
RATIONALE Extramammary Peget disease (EMPD) is a rare tumor, which typically occurs in the perianal regions. Perianal Paget disease (PPD) was first reported in 1893, and which has only 180 cases that have been reported in literature. The rarity of the disease means that no large studies have been made, and so the optimal treatment for this disease still remains controversial. PATIENT CONCERNS In this case, we reported a 65-years-old female patient with PPD. The patient suffered intermittent pruritus in the perianal region for 1 year. She had neither genitourinary nor gastrointestinal symptoms. Local examination revealed a whitish gray skin lesion in the left perianal area with a 3 × 3 cm size. DIAGNOSES The perianal skin biopsy was consistent with EMPD. Then the patient underwent a screening colonoscopy, gynecological ultrasonography, and whole-body computed tomography to exclude underlying malignancy. INTERVENTIONS The patient underwent wide local excision with margin control by frozen section examination and posterior thigh flap reconstruction. Subsequently follow-up remains 6 years. OUTCOMES The operation was successful. The total operation time was 296 minutes, and the estimated blood loss was 120 mL. The patient recovered without any complication and discharged home on the sixth postoperative day. After 6 years' follow-up, there was no evidence of recurrence and no influence in the anal bowel control function. LESSONS PPD is a rare disorder; the current knowledge on diagnose and treatment is based on small case series. Thus, it is complicated to elaborate a consensus on diagnostic and treatment guidelines. Wide local excision remains the treatment of choice with a variety of adjuvant therapies. Our method has an advantage which is the posterior thigh flap could be designed in accordance with the defect of the perianal. It is mandatory that the patient must accept a long-term follow-up to detect local recurrence and to distant carcinoma.

Abstract
Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) is a rare intraepithelial adenocarcinoma. The current mainstay of treatment is wide local excision. We present the case of a 56-year-old woman with perianal EMPD that recurred 4 years after initial treatment with wide local excision with Mohs micrographic surgery tissue processing of marginal tissue. Upon recurrence with anal canal involvement, the patient was treated with a 16-week combination course of topical imiquimod and oral cimetidine. There is growing evidence to support both the use of topical imiquimod for the treatment of EMPD as well as the antioncogenic effects of oral cimetidine. We present this case of primary perianal EMPD to highlight an alternative treatment regimen for poor surgical candidates.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Differentiating primary Paget's disease from secondary Paget's disease, which is also known as Pagetoid growth of other cancers, in the perianal region is difficult. Given that the treatment strategies of both disease are significantly different, diagnosis of such conditions should be performed with caution. We report a case of secondary Paget's disease. A 76-year-old man previously visited a hospital because of erythematous plaque around the anus. It was diagnosed as extramammary Paget's disease based on skin biopsy results; consequently, perianal skin resection was performed. Pathological examination of the resected specimen indicated Pagetoid growth of mucinous carcinoma, and it was positive for stump. Consequently, laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection was performed. Finally, the plaque was diagnosed as anal canal adenocarcinoma with Pagetoid growth, and all the previous results were deemed as initial diagnosis. CONCLUSION Discriminating between primary and secondary Paget's disease, even with immunohistological techniques, is difficult. Novel methodology that might facilitatemoreaccuratediagnosis preoperatively for erythematous plaquearound theanus and morecurativethe rapeutic strategy are needed.

Abstract
Extramammary Paget disease of the vulva is a rare condition that accounts for only 1-2% of vulvar malignancies and represents a frequent cause of misdiagnosis. It is most commonly seen in postmenopausal women. Clinically it is similar to Paget disease of the breast, appearing as red, well-demarcated eczematoid lesions, with slightly raised edges. A high degree of clinical suspicion is very important when evaluating these lesions in order to avoid misdiagnosis and delay of effective treatment. We present a case of vulvar Paget disease treated with vulvectomy.

Abstract
Extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is a rare intraepithelial adenocarcinoma arising from apocrine glands. We describe an innovative surgical technique to manage extensive cutaneous malignancies in a notoriously challenging location. The patient is a 78-year-old male who presented with 'jock itch' on his left groin refractory to topical treatment. A shave biopsy of the lesion demonstrated non-invasive EMPD which yielded a urology consult. Rather than the standard wide local excision (WLE), which can lead to positive margins, progression, and recurrence, we used a modified the Mohs technique and staged the procedure, providing excellent oncologic and cosmetic outcomes. The described technique has particular merit with uncertain margin status and when geography of lesions preclude a standard Mohs surgery.

Abstract
A wide range of genital infections and skin conditions may present with vulval pruritus. Lichen sclerosus is one cause. This is often associated with visible skin changes which include atrophy, resorption or fusion of the labia, sclerosis and excoriation. Ulceration may indicate malignant transformation and requires urgent biopsy. Many experienced clinicians diagnose lichen sclerosus on clinical appearance, however we recommend a low threshold for biopsy, especially for non-responding or odd looking lesions. We report a patient whose vulval skin biopsy for clinically suspected lichen sclerosus revealed extramammary Paget's disease of the vulva. We review the pathology, prognosis and treatment of this condition.

Abstract
Background: Perianal Pa get's disease is an uncommon intraepithelial neoplasm that involves areas affluent with apocrine glands, most frequently in the female external genitalia, but may also affect the perianal region. Objective: We present the pathologic and clinical management of a case of Paget's disease involving the perianal region, in which diagnosis was delayed for 8 years. Conclusions: The importance of a high index of suspicion for early diagnosis is emphasized, which should be followed by aggressive surgical treatment with wide excision and local reconstruction.
