Learn About Extramammary Paget Disease

What is the definition of Extramammary Paget Disease?
Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) is characterized by a chronic eczema-like rash of the skin around the genital regions of males and females. Under the microscope, this condition looks very similar to a condition that occurs on the breast called mammary Paget disease. The primary difference between the two is the location of the rash. While the location of the rash for individuals with mammary Paget disease is around the nipple and areolar skin, EMPD may occur in the vulva, perianal region, scrotum, penis, and axilla. About 25 percent of Extramammary Paget disease is associated with an underlying cancer.
What are the alternative names for Extramammary Paget Disease?
