Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Extra-mammary Paget disease is one of the rare neoplastic conditions of the skin. The most common site of involvement is the vulva and presents itself with erythematous plaques. Surgery is the most important treatment option. In the recent years, there are publications of the topical use of imiquimod cream in extra-mammary cutaneous Paget disease. We report the case of a woman with recurrent vulvar Paget disease, who underwent successful treatment with imiquimod cream. We also review the reports of other patients with vulvar Paget disease who were treated with topical imiquimod cream.
CASE REPORT: A 65-year-old woman presented to the Oncology Outpatient Clinic with an itchy lesion in her vulva for 2 years. In the gynecologic examination, a hyperkeratotic erythematous lesion was found starting from the right labium to involve clitoris, with a size of 4 × 3 cm. Pathology result was reported as Paget disease. She was operated and wide vulvar excision was performed with a safety margin of 2 cm. Then recurrence two times occurred. Because she refused surgery, imiquimod cream 5% was applied for treatment.
CONCLUSION: Imiquimod cream is an effective and safe therapeutic agent for both primary and recurring vulvar Paget disease.
