Clinical:<br />
* Pruritic red, crusted, sharply demarcated, maplike area,<br />
* Occurring usually on the labia majora.<br />
* Possible palpable submucosal thickening or tumor<br />
BUT….tumor cells often extend into skin appendages and<br />
may extend beyond the confines of the grossly visible<br />
lesion----- prone to recurrence.<br />
Prognosis is poor if associated with<br />
invasive cancer!!<br />
Paget disease as an intraepidermal lesion, may persist for<br />
many years without invasion.<br />
Clear halo, containing mucopolysaccharide<br />
(+ PAS, alcian blue, or mucicarmine stains)<br />
finely granular cytoplasm<br />
Single or small nests of large tumor cells in epidermis<br />
Ultrastructure: Paget cells display apocrine, eccrine, &<br />
keratinocyte differentiation<br />
Presumably arise from primitive epithelial progenitor cells.<br />
pale cytoplasm<br />
(stain for mucin, PAS-D stain, CEA, EMA)<br />
