Core Tip |
Perianal Paget's disease (PPD), particularly secondary PPD associated with anal adenocarcinoma, is frequently misdiagnosed due to nonspecific symptoms resembling hemorrhoids or eczema. This case highlights a 72-year-old female with a 2-year misdiagnosis history, ultimately confirmed via colonoscopy, biopsy, and immunohistochemistry [IHC; CK7(+)/CK20(+)/CDX2(+)/CEA(+)]. Successful treatment with 3D laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection and extended perianal excision underscores the importance of early IHC testing in refractory perianal symptoms. Key takeaways: (1) Secondary PPD requires high clinical suspicion in elderly patients with chronic perianal lesions; (2) Multimodal diagnostics (endoscopy, biopsy, IHC) are critical to differentiate primary/secondary PPD; (3) Radical resection ensures oncologic safety, while structured follow-up prevents recurrence. |
