ABSTRACT
Extramammary Paget's disease of the vulva is a rare lesion that accounts for 1~2% of vulvar neoplasms. Paget's disease often has a microscopic extension beyond the gross lesion and shows a multifocal distribution. Positive resection margin is common. We applied 5-FU cream on the lesion who had a positive resection margin. There was no residual lesion on multiple punch biopsies after 5-FU cream treatment three months later. And there has been no evidence of disease recurrence in the 12-month follow-up period. We experienced a case of effective treatment with 5-FU cream in microinvasive Paget's disease of the vulva with positive resection margin. We present it with a brief review of literatures.
