Notice that mammary Paget disease and Toker cell hyperplasia are not part of this DDX (wrong locations) except possibly in the rare case of EMPD arising in the axilla where mammary arising from a ectopic nipple or ectopic breast tissue may be a consideration. | *Notice that mammary Paget disease and Toker cell hyperplasia are not part of this DDX (wrong locations) except possibly in the rare case of EMPD arising in the axilla where mammary Paget disease arising from a ectopic nipple or ectopic breast tissue may be a consideration. | ||
Notice that EMPD is not really part of the DDX of pagetoid cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma arising on typical sun damaged skin (arm, cheek, leg) - if it's from an apocrine rich area - it's not EMPD. | *Notice that EMPD is not really part of the DDX of pagetoid cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma arising on typical sun damaged skin (arm, cheek, leg) - if it's from an apocrine rich area - it's not EMPD. | ||
