Patients with invasive extramammary Paget's disease have an increased risk of secondary malignancy, mostly occurring colorectal carcinoma. TP53 is a regulator of apoptosis, cell cycle arrest, and DNA damage response pathways, and has been reported as one of the genetic biomarkers for colorectal carcinoma. In this report, we describe a case of advanced invasive EMPD concomitant with cecal cancer with a rare variant of TP53 single nucleotide polymorphism (rs121912665). To our knowledge, there is no English report that presents EMPD concomitant with cecal carcinoma.
Keywords: CK20; CK7; Cecal carcinoma; EMPD; Immunohistochemical staining; TP53 SNP.
