Abstract

Paget’s disease of the breast is a malignant lesion consisting of Paget cells in the epidermis and an underlying ductal carcinoma of the breast tissue. It is estimated that 3% of female breast carcinoma cases are Paget's disease. If one estimates male breast carcinoma to be approximately 1% of the rate in the female population, then Paget's disease in men is clearly a rare clinical event. We present a case report of this disease in an elderly male patient and comment on the clinical features which should alert the physician to the presence of the malignancy.

Özet

Memenin Paget hastalığı malign bir lezyon olup, epidermisin Paget hücreleri ve meme dokusunun duktal karsinomundan oluşur. Kadın meme karsinomlarının yaklaşık %3’ünün Paget hastalığı olduğu tahmin edilmektedir. Erkek meme karsinomu, tahmini olarak kadın popülasyonun yaklaşık %1’i oranındadır ve bundan dolayı erkeklerde Paget hastalığı seyrek karşılaşılan bir durumdur. Bu olgu sunumunda, yaşlı bir erkek hastada gelişen memenin Paget hastalığı sunularak, klinisyenlerin hangi bulgularda maligniteden şüphelenmesi gerektiği belirtilmiştir.
