Diagnosis in short | |
Extramammary Paget's disease. H&E stain. | |
| |
LM | large epithelioid cells - nested or single - in the epidermis, clear/pale cytoplasm (occasionally eosinophilic), large nucleoli |
LM DDx | benign Toker cell hyperplasia, malignant melanoma, Bowen's disease, apocrine carcinoma of the skin |
IHC | CK7 +ve, CEA +ve, S-100 -ve, CK5/6 -ve, HER2 +ve |
Gross | erythema, +/-weeping, +/-crusted |
Site | vulva, penis, scrotum, others |

Symptoms | pruritis (itchy) |
Prognosis | typically benign - usually not associated with an underlying malignancy (unlike Paget's disease of the breast) |
Clin. DDx | contact dermatitis, lichen sclerosus |
Extramammary Paget disease, abbreviated EMPD, is a skin disease. As the name suggests, there is also a Paget disease of the breast.
There is also a Paget disease of the bone - just to make things confusing. This is dealt with in the bone article and has nothing (from a pathologic perspective) to do with the Paget disease discussed in this article
General
- Two types
- Primary Extramammary Paget disease - a malignancy of the cutaneous apocrine glands
- Arises in apocrine rich areas - usually the vulva but also the groin, inguinal area, perineum, penis[1] or scrotum.[2] and rarely axilla or eye.
- Usually entirely intraepidermal but may be associated with an underlying apocrine gland carcinoma (in contrast to mammary Paget disease which is usually associated with underlying mammary carcinoma).
- Secondary Extramammary Paget disease - intraepidermal spread from a distant tumor
- Usually of urothelial or colorectal origin.
- Arises in the perineal areas near these organs
- Primary Extramammary Paget disease - a malignancy of the cutaneous apocrine glands
Clinical:
- Pruritis.
- R/O VIN
- R/O vulvitis
Gross
Features:[2]
- Plaque with an irregular border.
- Erythematous or white.
Clinical DDx:

Microscopic
Features:
- Epitheliod morphology (round/ovoid).
- Cells nested or single.
- Clear/pale cytoplasm key feature - may also be eosinophilic.
- Large nucleoli.
Images
- Anus Pagets Disease PA.JPG
Anus Pagets Disease - (SKB)
DDx
- Benign Toker cell hyperplasia.
- Malignant melanoma.
- Bowen disease.
- Apocrine carcinoma of the skin.[4]
- Vulvar squamous cell carcinoma.
Stains
- Mucicarmine stain +ve.
IHC
Panel:
- CEA +ve (-ve in Bowen's disease, -ve in Toker cells).
- CK7 +ve.
- Toker cells CK7 +ve.[5]
- S100 -ve, HMB-45 -ve (both typically +ve in melanoma).
Additional:
- HER2/neu - usually +ve.
- CK5/6 -ve.[6]
- Usu. +ve in squamous cell carcinoma.
- CAM 5.2 +ve.
