“…The anatomical and physiological distinction between female and male genitalia predisposes to different dermatoses; Zoon’s plasma cell balanitis and erythroplasia of Queyrat are mostly observed in men with redundant prepuce, while pregnancy dermatoses occur exclusively in women. However, it remains largely unknown why lichen sclerosus et atrophicus, erosive adenomatosis of nipple, 113 eruptive syringoma, 63,114 hidradenoma papilliferum involve mostly female instead of male genitalia.…”

Gender differences in medicine have been recognized in anatomy, physiology, as well as in epidemiology and manifestations of various diseases. With respect to skin disorders, males are generally more commonly afflicted with infectious diseases while women are more susceptible to psychosomatic problems, pigmentary disorders, certain hair diseases, and particularly autoimmune as well as allergic diseases. Significantly, more female sex-associated dermatoses can be identified than the male sex-associated dermatoses. Dermatoses in the genital area differ between men and women. Gender differences also exist in the occurrence and prognosis of certain skin malignancies. The mechanisms underlying gender differences in skin diseases remain largely unknown. Differences in the skin structure and physiology, effect of sex hormones, ethnic background, sociocultural behaviour and environmental factors may interact to exert the influences. A better understanding of gender differences in human health and diseases will allow the development of novel concepts for prevention, diagnosis and therapy of skin diseases.

“…The risk of adenocarcinoma in patients with nipple adenoma is 13.3%, similar to the incidence of breast cancer in the general population [7,18,24]. Skin conditions (psoriasis, seborrheic keratosis, molluscum contagiosum, squamous cell carcinoma) or other benign breast lesions (leiomyoma, mammary duct ectasia) also have been considered in the differential diagnosis of adults with nipple adenoma [7,19,25].…”

“…Also known as florid papillomatosis of the nipple ducts, its clinical presentation ranges from erosion of the nipple skin or a visible nodule to nipple discharge . To rule out other conditions involving the nipple area, most commonly Paget's disease, carcinoma, or other proliferative disorders, a differential diagnosis has to be made, which entails a mandatory skin biopsy to discard such diseases . The traditional approach involves total removal of the lesion, often requiring complete disposal of the nipple because of recurrence.…”
