Abstract
Extramammary Paget�s disease is a rare entity. It is defined as an epidermal carcinoma with apocrine differentiation originating in the epidermis or secondary to epidermotropa dissemination. It usually shows as an eczematiform lesion with well defined margins in areas rich in apocrine glands. The wide variety of medical entities with similar symptoms and with a greater incidence delay its diagnosis, hence the importance of performing a biopsy before any suspicious lesion.
