Abstract
Background: Extramammary Paget’s disease (EMPD) is a rare skin cancer with unclear pathogenesis, insidious progression, and high recurrence rate. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical features and postoperative recurrence factors of primary EMPD. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 40 patients with primary EMPD who underwent wide local excision surgery at a single medical center between 2009 and 2019. Risk factors for recurrence of primary EMPD were analyzed using multivariate binary logistic regression. Results: The study included 40 patients with primary EMPD, comprising 31 males (77.5%) and 9 females (22.5%), with a median age of 75.52 years (range 52– 99 years). The most common lesion location was the scrotum (22 cases, 55.0%), followed by the vulva, penis, scrotum, underarm and anus. Multivariable regression analysis revealed significant differences in the presence of ill-defined tumour borders, exudation and nodules in the primary lesion affecting the relapse of primary EMPD (p< 0.05). Conclusion: Our findings indicate that ill-defined tumour borders, exudation and nodules in the primary site should be considered as independent risk factors for disease recurrence, which may provide useful suggestions for the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of primary EMPD.
期刊介绍:
Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology is an international, peer-reviewed, open access journal that focuses on the latest clinical and experimental research in all aspects of skin disease and cosmetic interventions. Normal and pathological processes in skin development and aging, their modification and treatment, as well as basic research into histology of dermal and dermal structures that provide clinical insights and potential treatment options are key topics for the journal.
Patient satisfaction, preference, quality of life, compliance, persistence and their role in developing new management options to optimize outcomes for target conditions constitute major areas of interest.
The journal is characterized by the rapid reporting of clinical studies, reviews and original research in skin research and skin care.
All areas of dermatology will be covered; contributions will be welcomed from all clinicians and basic science researchers globally.
