Abstract

Extramammary Paget disease is a rare cutaneous malignancy that most commonly affects the genitals, perianal area, and axilla of elderly patients. Delays in care often lead to high levels of disease burden for patients. Thus, evidence-based recommendations are paramount in mitigating morbidity and mortality for this unique patient population. This 2-part continuing medical education series provides a complete picture of extramammary Paget disease. Part 2 of this continuing medical education series focuses on the complex management of extramammary Paget disease including surgical and non-invasive therapies, as well as novel approaches for advanced disease.

Keywords: Extramammary Paget Disease; Imiquimod; Margin control; Mohs Micrographic Surgery; Photodynamic Therapy; Radiation Therapy.
