“…Chiu et al reported 1 case of unilateral axillary EMPD having underlying adnexal carcinoma [33]. Jung et al also demonstrated a case of apocrine carcinoma of the axilla associated with EMPD [34]. After we carefully excluded the lesions in other parts or organs, the nal diagnosis of our case mainly depended on pathology, especially a large number of adenocarcinoma cells could be seen on HE staining section, and there were also obvious Paget cells on it.…”

BackgroundAccessory breast carcinoma and sweat gland carcinoma associated with extramammary Paget’s disease of the axilla in male are rare cases. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to determine the disease carefully and make a reasonable treatment strategy according to the patient’s own situation.Case presentationWe reported two male cases of special tumor with axillary mass as initial clinical symptom, one was diagnosed as accessory breast cancer and the other was diagnosed as sweat gland cancer associated with extramammary Paget’s disease. We did personalized treatment for the two diseases, hoping to provide a reference for the diagnosis and management of diseases with axillary nodules as the initial symptoms.ConclusionsThe reports of these two cases have the potential to provide reference and corresponding thinking for clinical differentiation of axillary lymphadenopathy caused by different causes and subsequent treatment. These two cases may further enrich the database of rare cases and provide some ideas for the treatment of axillary lymphadenopathy caused by different causes.

Background Male cases of accessory breast carcinoma and sweat gland carcinoma associated with extramammary Paget’s disease of the axilla are uncommon. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, it is necessary to determine the disease carefully and make a reasonable treatment strategy according to the patient’s situation. Case presentation We described two male cases of the special tumor with an axillary mass as the first clinical symptom, one of which was diagnosed as accessory breast cancer and the other as sweat gland cancer associated with extramammary Paget’s disease. We treated the two diseases individually in the hopes of providing a reference for the diagnosis and management of diseases with axillary nodules as the initial symptom. Conclusions The reports of these two cases can provide reference and corresponding thinking for clinical differentiation of axillary lymphadenopathy caused by different causes and subsequent treatment. These two cases may further enrich the database of rare cases and provide some ideas for the treatment of axillary lymphadenopathy caused by different causes.

“…Villada et al 3 reported a case of EMPD of the vulva with an underlying adenocarcinoma or mammary-like carcinoma that originated from an anogenital mammary-like gland. These mammary-like carcinomas of the vulva are extremely rare, and have been observed in fewer than 5% of EMPD cases 6 . Furthermore, no cases of axillary EMPD with apocrine adenocarcinoma accompanied by mammary-type carcinoma have yet been reported 4 .…”

Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) is an uncommon malignancy that occurs in apocrine gland-rich areas of the body. EMPD of the axilla is rare, but a few cases have been reported. Some cases of EMPD have been reported with underlying apocrine adenocarcinoma; rarely, mammary-type ductal carcinoma can accompany EMPD. Here, we report a very rare case of EMPD with apocrine adenocarcinoma and invasive mammary-type ductal carcinoma. A 55-year-old woman was referred with a brownish pigmented plaque accompanying an area of ulceration in the left axilla. A preoperative biopsy indicated Paget disease, and an additional evaluation was performed to determine whether it was of primary or secondary origin. A wide excision was made, and the axilla was reconstructed using a thoracodorsal artery perforator flap. The biopsy showed apocrine adenocarcinoma and invasive mammary-type ductal carcinoma with pagetoid spreading. The patient had no evidence of recurrence or other postoperative complications.
