Abstract

The incidence of Extramammary Paget Disease is rare. It is difficult to diagnose Extramammary Paget Disease, as there are many benign and malignant mimickers. We report a case of Axillary Extramammary Paget’s Disease in a 40-year-old female who presented with a single violaceous plaque in the right axilla. Emphasis is given to clinical and histopathological correlation to narrow down the spectrum, and furthermore, immunohistochemical markers play a major role in reaching the Final diagnosis.
