Extramammary Paget’s Disease in the Genital Area of a Male: A Case Report and Review of the Literature
Extramammary Paget’s disease (EMPD) is an uncommon intraepithelial malignancy that is rarely found in the male. Currently, there is very little knowledge pertaining to EMPD imaging, particularly in cases that involve the scrotum. Here, a 67-year-old man with lichenification on his left scrotum confi...
