Experience with Paget's Disease of the Breast

Abstract

Objective: Paget's disease of the breast is a rare disease, is just 1-4.3% of all breast cancer patient and causing characteristic eczematous changes at the nipple. In this study, we aimed to present clinicopathological findings and treatment approach of the patients were treated surgically in the diagnosis of Paget's disease of thebreast. MaterialsandMethods: Thirteen patients medical records, which were treated for Paget's disease of the breast in our clinic between 2006 - 2013, were analyzed retrospectively. Results: 3.15% of patients admitted to our clinic with breast cancer has been diagnosed as Paget's disease of the breast. The median age of patients was 54 (29-87) years. It was found that the use of topical treatment of patients with lesion in the nipple causes delay in diagnosing. The other complaint of the patients was the breast mass. All patients were performed modified radical mastectomy procedure. Patients were followed up for an average of 27 (3-52) months. Radiologic examinations has shown there may be false-negative results. Ultrasonography showed no benefit, especially in patients with DCIS. There has been a patient with multiple bone metastases during follow-up. There was no recurrence or metastasis on the other patients. Conclusion: Paget's disease is primarily a clinical diagnosis. Topical treatments and diagnosing only based on radiological findings may cause delay in diagnosis. In consideration of occurrence of relapses, mastectomy is the Standard treatment. However, breast-conserving surgery can also be done in selected patients.
