About

In addition to evaluating treatment outcomes, tissue samples and swabs will be collected as part of this study to allow physicians to better understand Extramammary Paget's Disease (EMPD). The researchers also want to learn more about the microorganisms (microbiome) that live on or near the areas of skin affected by EMPD, in order to better understand this condition.

Full description

This is a prospective cohort study. Patients with Extramammary Paget's Disease (EMPD), specifically women with vulvar/perianal Paget's disease, will be identified during presentation to either the Dermatology Department or Gynecologic Surgery department at Mayo Clinic.

During physical exam, the patients will undergo skin/rectum/vagina cultures to evaluate the microbiome in these patients. The patients will be entered into the established care pathway for EMPD. They will be asked to complete sexual health questionnaires including: The Women's Health Clinical Questionnaires include the Menopause Rating Scale (MRS)1, Perceived Stress Scale2, Brief Resilience Scale (BRS)3, LASA Quality of Life Assessment4, Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI)5, Female Sexual Distress Scale-Revised6, Kansas Marital Satisfaction Scale7, and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)8.

The patients will be referred to Women's Health Clinic as part of the care pathway and will undergo preoperative genital sensory testing (GST) which measures sensation of the clitoris, vulva, and vagina. The patients will have a Dermatology consultation and Moh's micrographic procedure as indicated. If choosing to proceed with surgical intervention, the patients will then undergo an excisional procedure with the Department of Gynecologic surgery. Swabs, urine and tissue will be collected prior to procedures or surgery for microbiome analysis.
