Abstract

Extramammary Paget's disease(EMPD), like primary Paget's disease of the nipple, is characterized by initial growth of malignant adenocarcinoma cells within the epidermis. It may be accompanied by an invasive adenocarcinoma or in situ adenocarcinoma of the apocrine gland. The lesion is a rare tumor that most frequently involves the vulva or anus, and the involvement of the penis and scrotum is extremely rare. It can be managed by local excision and immediate reconstruction with skin grafting or a local skin flap. We review the literature and report a case of extramammary Paget's disease with apocrine adenocarcinoma of the penis and scrotum.
