*Extramammary Paget disease is a 'big' diagnosis in that the diagnosis will have significant clinical consequences. So a large panel of immuno is required to nail down the diangosis.
*Is the lesion epithelial or melanocytic? (S100, Melan A)
*Is the lesion adenocarcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma?
**Low molecular weight (CK7, cam5.2) or high molecular weight keratins (34BE12, CK5/6)?
**Adenocarcinoma markers? - CEA, BerEP4
**Nuclear differentiation markers? - p63 (squamous) vs GATA3 (adnexal)
*Is the lesion primary or secondary
**Secondary extramammary Paget disease may be CK20 positive (urothelial or rectal
**If CK20 is positive are other organ specific markers positive? - CDX2 - colorectal or GATA3 - urothelial
Panel:
Panel:
*CEA +ve (-ve in Bowen's disease, -ve in Toker cells).
*A carcinoma marker - CEA or BerEP4 or both
*CK7 +ve.
*Differential keratins - low molecular weight (glandular) cam5.2, CK7 vs high molecular weight (squamous) 34BE12, CK5/6<ref>RS. May 2010.</ref>
**Toker cells CK7 +ve.<ref name=pmid19601945>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Nofech-Mozes | first1 = S. | last2 = Hanna | first2 = W. | title = Toker cells revisited. | journal = Breast J | volume = 15 | issue = 4 | pages = 394-8 | month =  | year =  | doi = 10.1111/j.1524-4741.2009.00743.x | PMID = 19601945 }}</ref>
*CK7 and CK20 - where does it come from?
*S100 -ve, HMB-45 -ve (both typically +ve in melanoma).
*S100 and Melan A - exclude melanoma in situ
*Differentiation markers GATA - apocrine and urothelial; p63 - squamous, CDX2 - colorectal


Additional:
Notice that a CK20 negative urothelial origin EMPD will show the same immunoprofile as a primary cutaneous EMPD.
*HER2/neu - usually +ve.
Notice that you do not need to consider mammary Paget disease or Toker cells in your ddx.
*CK5/6 -ve.<ref>RS. May 2010.</ref>
You can not rely on any one marker - a panel is required
**Usu. +ve in [[squamous cell carcinoma]].
**Do not rely on CK7 alone as CK7 may be positive in pagetoid squamous cell carcinoma in situ or extramammary Paget disease <ref>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Raju | first1 = RR. | last2 = Goldblum | first2 = JR. | last3 = Hart | first3 = WR. | title = Pagetoid squamous cell carcinoma in situ (pagetoid Bowen's disease) of the external genitalia. | journal = Int J Gynecol Pathol | volume = 22 | issue = 2 | pages = 127-35 | month = Apr | year = 2003 | doi =  | PMID = 12649666 }}</ref>
*CAM 5.2 +ve.
