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

Microscopic
Features:
- Epitheliod morphology (round/ovoid).

Images:
DDx
- Benign Toker cell hyperplasia.
- Malignant melanoma.
- Bowen disease.
- Apocrine carcinoma.[2]
IHC
Panel:
- CEA +ve (-ve in Bowen's disease, -ve in Toker cells).
- CK7 +ve. (???)
- Toker cells CK7 +ve.[3]
- S100 -ve, HMB-45 -ve (both typically +ve in melanoma).
