Background: While mammary Paget disease (MPD) is usually associated with an underlying breast carcinoma, the majority of extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) do not have an underlying malignancy. However, both diseases share similar tumor morphology and the same intraepidermal tumor growth pattern. We examined the clinicopathologic features of MPD and EMPD and compared the expression of androgen receptor (AR), estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her2), gross cystic disease fluid protein (GCDFP-15), E-cadherin, and Ki-67 between the two neoplasms.
Design: A retrospective review of all biopsy-proven cases of MPD and EMPD diagnosed at our institution between 2002 and 2010 was conducted. Immunohistochemical studies for AR, ER, PR, Her2, GCDFP-15, E-cadherin, Ki-67 were performed on tissue from the paraffin block. The clinical characteristics, histologic features, and biomarkers were compared between cases of MPD and EMPD.
Results: Nine MPD cases and 6 EMPD cases were identified. The extramammary tumor sites included penis, scrotum, groin, vulva and perianal area. The clinicopathologic data and immunohistochemical profile of these cases are shown in the following table.
