Four vulvectomy specimens from patients with vulvar Paget's disease were studied by means of subserial total sectioning. In each case, the extent of histologically demonstrable disease was far greater than that of the visible lesion, the outline of the involved area was highly irregular, and multiple foci of disease were present. The implications of the findings for treatment selection, intraoperative management, and histogenesis are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
