Extramammary Paget disease
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 - thought to be an intraepidermal carcinoma arising from 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 rarely 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 tumour
      • Usually of urothelial or colorectal origin.
      • Arises in the perineal areas near these organs.

Clinical:

  • Pruritis.
  • R/O VIN.
  • R/O vulvitis.

Gross

Features:[2]

  • Plaque with an irregular border.
  • Erythematous or white.

Clinical DDx:

  • Lichen sclerosus.[3]
  • Vulvar intraepithelial neoplasia
  • Vulvar squamous cell carcinoma in situ
  • Other vulvitis

Images

Microscopic

Features:

  • Epitheliod morphology (round/ovoid).
  • Cells nested or single.
  • Classically Paget cells ride above the basal cell layer
  • But the process can fill the entire epidermis
  • Clear/pale cytoplasm key feature - may also be eosinophilic.
  • Large nucleoli.

  • Vulva Paget Disease - low power - (SKB)

DDx

  • Melanoma in situ - notice that the atypical cells are largely down at the basal layer with some upward migration. (SKB)

  • Squamous cell carcinoma in situ "Bowen disease"
    • Pagetoid squamous cell carcinoma in situ can look identical to extramammary Paget disease
    • But should have some areas of typical SCCIS with full thickness cohesive atypia

  • An SCCIS from sundamaged skin. Pagetoid SCCIS on the left, conventional SCCIS on the right. (SKB)

  • Pagetoid vulvar/anal/penil HPV associated intraepithelial neoplasia - Pagetoid areas often merge into areas of typical VIN
  • 'Paget disease' associated with an underlying local carcinoma - apocrine, Bartholin's duct etc (rare).
  • Notice that mammary Paget disease and Toker cell hyperplasia are not part of this DDX (wrong location) 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 not from an apocrine rich area (and these are usually in the shade) - it's not EMPD.

  • Notice that you do not need to include markers for mammary Paget disease or Toker cells.
  • Do not rely on CK7 alone as CK7 may be positive in pagetoid squamous cell carcinoma in situ or extramammary Paget disease [5]
  • p16 is not helpful in this DDX as VIN, EMPD and urothelial carcioma can be positive for this marker [6]

Roughly and with caveats........

  • Primary cutaneous extramammary Paget disease - CK7+, CK20-, BerEP4+, CEA+, S100-, MelanA-, 34BE12-, CK5/6-, p63-, GATA+, CDX2-
  • Secondary extramammary Paget disease - colorectal origin - CK7-, CK20+, BerEP4+, CEA+, S100-, MelanA-, 34BE12-, CK5/6-, p63-, GATA-, CDX2+
  • Secondary extramammary Paget disease - urothelial origin - CK7+, CK20+/-, BerEP4-/+, CEA-/+, S100-, MelanA-, 34BE12+, CK5/6+/-, p63+, GATA+, CDX2-
