Abstract

Both members of a married couple were found to suffer from Extramammary Paget’s disease. The husband, a 70-year-old man, had erythematous lesions on the penile and left scrotal skin. His wife, a 65-year-old woman, had similar lesions extending from both labia majora to the clitoris. Both were diagnosed with extramammary Paget’s disease by histopathological examination. Although rare cases of familial occurrence of extramammary Paget’s disease have been previously reported in the literature, there has been no such report of extramammary Paget’s disease in a married couple. Infectious or environmental etiology may be supposed to be operating, although this simultaneous occurrence of EMPD in a married couple may be coincidental.
