Perianal Paget's disease (PPD) is a rare malignant cutaneous tumor. This paper reported a case of PPD complicated by lung adenocarcinoma and anal canal cancer. The patient, a 76-year-old female, had been experiencing recurrent lower abdominal pain and perianal pruritus for the past 5 years. Upon physical examination, a cauliflower-like neoplasm in size of 5 cm×6 cm was observed on the right perianal skin, with local skin ulceration and a small amount of fluid discharge. The left perianal skin was also involved. In thoracoknee position, a hard mass was palpable in the rectal submucosa at 5-6 points 2 cm from the anal verge. Chest CT revealed multiple lesions in both lungs, indication of metastatic tumors. Further evaluation with fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) indicated multiple hypermetabolic nodules in the lungs, hypermetabolic lymph nodes throughout the body, early FDG uptake in a small patch of skin on the left hip, and increased FDG uptake in the anorectal region. Histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of lung adenocarcinoma. This resulted in the patient being diagnosed with PPD, lung adenocarcinoma, anal canal cancer, and systemic multiple lymph node metastasis. The combination of PPD with gastrointestinal tumors and other metachronous malignant tumors is highly prevalent. Colonoscopy, FDG-PET/CT, histopathology, and immunohistochemistry play crucial roles in early identification of local lymph node and distant involvement, facilitating the evaluation of potential malignant tumors and differential diagnosis. Treating methods for PPD are currently diverse, including postoperative combined or single chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted therapy, and photodynamic therapy. As trerapeutical options continue to develop, the extent and efficacy of surgery need to be reassessed.

A review of 14 cases of perianal Paget's disease: characteristics of anorectal cancer with pagetoid spread.

BACKGROUND: Perianal Paget's disease (PPD) is an intraepithelial invasion of the perianal skin and is frequently associated with underlying anorectal carcinoma. The relatively rare nature of this disease has made it difficult to develop treatment recommendations. This study aims to analyze the clinical and pathological features of perianal Paget's disease (PPD) and to explore rational treatment options and follow-up for this disease. METHODS: The National Cancer Center Hospital database was searched for all cases of perianal Paget's disease diagnosed between 2006 and 2021. In the 14 patients identified, we reviewed the diagnosis, management, and outcomes of adenocarcinoma with pagetoid spread, including suspected or recurrent cases. RESULTS: All 14 cases met the inclusion criteria. The median follow-up period after diagnosis was 4.5 (range, 0.1-13.0) years. Pagetoid spread before initial treatment was suspected in 12 cases (85.7%). Underlying rectal cancer was identified in 6 cases, and no primary tumor was detected in the other 6 cases. Seven patients had recurrent disease, with the median time to recurrence of 34.6 (range, 19.2-81.7) months. The time to the first relapse was 3 months, and that to the second relapse was 6 months. The overall 5-year survival rate was 90.0%. CONCLUSIONS: Endoscopic and radiologic evaluation, as well as immunohistologic examination, should be performed. is to differentiate PPD with and without underlying anorectal carcinoma. The time to first recurrence varies widely, and long-term and regular follow-up for more than 5 years is considered necessary for local recurrence and distant metastasis.

Hypopigmentation in Extramammary Paget Disease Is an Important Prognostic Factor for High Recurrence Rate and Poor Surgical Outcome.

BACKGROUND: Several studies have reported the presence of hypopigmentation in extramammary Paget disease (EMPD). However, an in-depth analysis regarding its clinical implication is lacking. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical characteristics of EMPD in the Korean population and to determine the implication of hypopigmentation on clinical outcomes. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 124 cases of EMPD who underwent surgical treatment from a single tertiary hospital from December 2005 to March 2019. Baseline characteristics of the patients and hypopigmentation patterns were analyzed. Moreover, the number of stages of Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) and recurrence rate were evaluated in relation to the hypopigmentation. RESULTS: A total of 67.7% (n = 84) of the patients showed hypopigmentation. The adjusted odds ratio for recurrence in the hypopigmented group was 5.980, which was statistically significant (95% confidence interval = 1.347-26.553, p-value = 0.019). Furthermore, the average number of MMS stages was 2.92 in the hypopigmentation group, compared with 1.82 in the nonhypopigmentation group (p-value = .0016). CONCLUSION: Hypopigmented lesions may disguise the tumor margin, thus raising the recurrence rate after surgery and the number of stages of MMS. The hypopigmentation status must be considered when deciding the surgical margin.

Pulmonary tumor thrombotic microangiopathy associated with extramammary Paget's disease: An autopsy case report.

Pulmonary tumor thrombotic microangiopathy (PTTM) is histologically characterized by micro tumor cell embolism and intimal fibrocellular proliferation of pulmonary arteries or arterioles. We report a secondary case of PTTM associated with extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD). The patient was a 72-year-old man with exertional dyspnea. Clinical examinations found he had pulmonary hypertension and multiple osteolytic lesions of vertebra. Cytological analysis of pulmonary wedge artery sample detected malignant cells and he was dead before treatment was started. Multiple tumor embolisms (>17) were identified in pulmonary arteries or arterioles at autopsy, consistent with PTTM. Metastatic nodules were found in liver and lymph node. Furthermore, disseminated carcinomatosis of the bone marrow (DCBM) was seen. Immunostaining results pointed out that tumor cells possessed mammary gland phenotype. He had 4-years history of EMPD in the left axilla without recurrence, and immunohistochemistry results were the same as the autopsy specimen. Thus, we diagnosed the primary site of PTTM to be EMPD. Our case highlights the usefulness of the recent proposed classification of PTTM, potential association between PTTM and DCBM, and the necessity for long-term follow-up in EMPD. EMPD can rarely cause PTTM to manifest as a paraneoplastic syndrome.

Non-human-papillomavirus-related malignancies of the vulva: A clinicopathological study.

BACKGROUND: Malignant tumor of the vulva is the fourth gynecological malignancy in frequency. Close to 70% of all vulvar malignancies are related to high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. METHODS: A search for non-HPV-related malignant tumors of the vulva was performed in the last 20 years (2000-2020) in the pathology database of a single tertiary institution. We aim to estimate the prevalence of non-HPV-related malignancies in our population, describe clinicopathological features of these tumors and investigate the expression of some potential therapeutic targets. RESULTS: A total of 71 patients were recovered; 26 patients (36%) had the diagnosis of extramammary Paget disease, 17 patients (24%) had basal cell carcinomas, 17 patients (24%) had primary melanomas, 10 patients (14%) had metastatic disease to the vulva and one patient (1%) had a primary dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans. Fifty-four percent of patients with extramammary Paget disease had a secondary malignancy and 12.5% had invasive disease. Programmed death-ligand 1 (PDL-1) was positive in seven out of nine primary melanomas and Her2/neu was overexpressed in six out of seven extramammary Paget disease. CONCLUSION: Non-HPV-related malignancies are important differential diagnoses in patient with vulvar lesions. Additional research is necessary to further understand these complex malignancies and potential new therapeutic targets.

A Unique and Rare Case of Extramammary Paget Disease With Concomitant Herpes Simplex.

We describe a rare and unique case of extramammary Paget disease in the genitals with concomitant histological features of herpes virus infection. This is a very rare and interesting association that has only been reported in 1 article in the literature so far.

[Pigmented extramammary Paget's disease accompanied with condyloma acuminatum: a case report].

Pigmented extramammary Paget's disease (PEMPD) is an uncommon intraepithelial adenocarcinoma and a rare variant of Paget's disease, characterized as a superficial pigmented scaly macule clinically and an increased number of melanocytes scattered between the Paget's cells histologically. So it may be confused clinically and histologically with melanocytic tumors, dermatitis and other dermatoses. Different therapeutic attitudes are required in this case of adenocarcinoma in situ as opposed to melanoma and dermatitis. Condyloma acuminatum (CA) is a common sexually transmitted disease caused by human papilloma virus infection, which is also called as genital warts. In this article, we first reported a case of a 65-year-old Chinese man who had pigmented extramammary Paget's disease complicated with CA. This patient presented with verrucous papules on the scrotum for 3.5 years, infiltrative erythema with itch on the mons pubis for 3 years, and scrotum and penis involved gradually for 4 months. Physical examination showed a 8 cm×10 cm dark red patch on the upper part of the scrotum, penis and mons pubis, as well as few maculopapules and nodules. Histopathologic examination of the lesion on the scrotum revealed a focus of Paget's disease, characterized by the presence of large round cells with abundant pale or granular/dusty cytoplasm, pleomorphic vesicular nuclei and prominent nucleoli (Paget's cells), while the histology of the verrucous lesion was consistent with CA. Immunohistochemistry was performed, which showed diffuse positive staining with CK, CEA, PAS, CK20, EMA, CK7, and Ki-67 (40%), HER2 in Paget's cells and negative with P53, P16, CK5/6, S100, MelanA, HMB45, estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and gross cystic disease flid protein 15 (GCDFP15). Human papillomavirus-11 (HPV-11) was positive by genotyping using gene amplification in the lesion of scrotum. According to clinical features and laboratory findings, a diagnosis of PEMPD complicated with CA was made. Local excision of the lesion was performed and sent for histological examination, with all margins clear of tumor. Both aforementioned diseases often occur in the vulva. Even so, it has been rarely reported coexisting of the above two diseases, of which the clinical significance and association are also unclear. In this article, we also reviewed the literature relating to PEMPD, and on this basis, the profile of this disease is discussed including its pathogenesis, clinical manifestation, diagnosis, treatment and advances. Due to PEMPD occasionally accompanied with an underlying carcinoma, it's essential to make an accurate diagnosis. Besides, review of the literature reveals that pigmented variant of Paget's disease could be initially misdiagnosed as melanocytic tumors and other dermatoses unless the entity is considered in the differential diagnosis and additional confirmatory studies are performed.

Stop routine screening for associated malignancies in cutaneous noninvasive vulvar Paget disease?

BACKGROUND: Vulvar Paget disease (VPD) is extremely rare and thought to be associated with other malignancies. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the risk of developing breast, intestinal and urological malignancies in patients with VPD compared with the general population, and in particular to focus on the risk of malignancy in patients with cutaneous noninvasive VPD. METHODS: Data on the oncological history of patients with any type of VPD between 2000 and 2015 were obtained from PALGA, a nationwide archive containing all pathology reports in the Netherlands. Follow-up data and a control group from the general population were obtained from the Netherlands Cancer Registry. After correction for age and calendar year at time of diagnosis, standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) for the first 3 years after VPD diagnosis were estimated with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS: We identified 199 patients with a first diagnosis of VPD [164 noninvasive, 35 (micro)invasive] between 2000 and 2015. The SIR of developing an associated malignancy in the first 3 years after diagnosis was 4·67 (95% CI 2·66-7·64). This was due mainly to the high incidence of intestinal malignancies among patients with secondary VPD. Subgroup analysis for cutaneous noninvasive VPD did not reveal a significantly increased risk for associated malignancies: SIR 2·08 (95% CI 0·76-4·62). CONCLUSIONS: Of our patients with VPD, 76·9% were diagnosed with cutaneous noninvasive VPD, and this group has no increased risk for developing malignancies of the breast, intestine or urological tract. Our study suggests that routine screening for these malignancies in patients diagnosed with cutaneous noninvasive VPD may not be necessary.

Invasive Extramammary Paget Disease of the Vulva With Signet Ring Cell Morphology in a Patient With Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma of the Stomach: Report of a Case.

This report describes a rare case of invasive extramammary Paget disease of the vulva with signet ring cell morphology in a 58-yr-old woman with a history of signet ring cell carcinoma of the stomach. This case was initially misinterpreted as a metastatic gastric carcinoma to the vulva because an initial small, superficial biopsy specimen showed infiltration of signet ring cells in the dermis without intraepidermal Paget cells. However, a surgically resected specimen showed concordant immunophenotypes in both intraepidermal Paget cells and intradermal signet ring cell components with immunoreactivity to cytokeratin (CK) 7, CEA, and gross cystic disease fluid protein-15, and immunonegativity for CK20, MUC5AC, and MUC6. Gastric signet ring cell carcinoma showed immunoreactivity to CK7, CEA, MUC5AC, and MUC6, and immunonegativity for gross cystic disease fluid protein-15 and CK20. The diagnosis of primary invasive extramammary Paget disease of the vulva was also supported by a long interval after gastrectomy (7.5 yr), the solitary involvement of the vulva, and the absence of lymphovascular invasion. This case demonstrates that invasive extramammary Paget disease may have a signet ring cell morphology and immunohistochemical profile similar to those of gastric signet ring cell carcinoma, but the addition of gross cystic disease fluid protein-15 immunostain in the panel of markers is helpful in the differential diagnosis.

A rare case of metastatic extramammary Paget disease of the spine and review of the literature.

Extramammary Paget disease is an intraepithelial neoplasm affecting cells rich in apocrine glands-often located in the vulvar, scrotal, or perianal region. It typically affects older patients, between the ages of 50 and 80years old, and is most often limited to the epidermis. A 47-year-old Asian male first presented with enlargement of the right inguinal lymph node. A subsequent biopsy revealed extrammamary Paget disease of the scrotum. The patient eventually developed significant worsening back pain with bilateral lower extremity numbness and weakness three months later. Imaging demonstrated a pathologic compression fracture of the L4 vertebral body with metastatic epidural spinal cord compression. The patient underwent surgical decompression of the spine with bilateral L4 laminectomy, resection of epidural tumor, and pedicle screw fixation from L2 to S1. Surgical pathology demonstrated metastatic adenocarcinoma consistent with extramammary Paget disease. Although two other case reports have described spinal metastases from extramammary Paget disease, to the author's knowledge, this represents the first report of surgical decompression and fusion for extramammary Paget disease of the spine.
