Extramammary Paget’s Disease

What Is Extramammary Paget's Disease (EMPD)?

Extramammary Paget disease is a rare cancer related to Paget's disease of the breast, but found around the anus and genitals of both men and women—most commonly on the vulva of postmenopausal women.

This cancer is slow-growing—sometimes it is present for 10 to 15 years before it becomes noticeable.
