Considérations pathogéniques sur la maladie de Paget, à l’occasion de l’étude d’un cas à localization extra-mammaire

This chapter on cutaneous appendageal tumours covers the spectrum of lesions displaying eccrine, apocrine, sebaceous and follicular differentiation. It includes cysts, hamartomas and benign and malignant tumours. Traditionally, appendageal tumours have been classified according to rigid criteria separating lesions with eccrine, apocrine, sebaceous and follicular differentiation. This separation is clearly artificial and it is now acknowledged that lesions regarded as strictly eccrine may well have apocrine differentiation and lesions classified as purely follicular may exhibit apocrine differentiation reflecting the close embryological relationship between the pilosebaceous unit and the apocrine gland.

The clinical presentation of skin appendage tumours for the most part is not as specific and diverse as the histological features of this extremely heterogeneous tumour group. Differential diagnosis of certain appendageal tumours can be extremely subtle, yet greatly influence final treatment outcome. Occasional association of certain entities with inherited tumour syndrome s can be extremely important in terms of hereditary cancer screening. This chapter aims to provide the most important clinical, histological and genetic features for selected, most important cutaneous appendage tumours.
