Perianal Paget’s Disease in a Forty-Five-Year-Old Man and Review of the Literature
2015
Introduction: Extramammary Paget’s disease is a rare neoplasm of the skin that might develop in perianal region. Although different management options are available, wide local excision is still the method of choice. Case Presentation: A 45-year-old man presented with perianal itchy lesions for one year with no response to local treatments. Perianal Paget’s disease was diagnosed by performing a surgical biopsy. Wide excision and flap reconstruction was done, while loop sigmoid colostomy was performed for fecal diversion. Re-excision of the involved margins was performed during the second operation. Conclusions: A good outcome and no recurrence or complications was noticed in a follow-up period of 24 months. It is important to consider this uncommon disease as a probable diagnosis when evaluating a perianal lesion.
