High-frequency ultrasound can aid in evaluating the extent of vertical invasion in extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) by analyzing the pseudopodia morphology, helping to distinguish between invasive EMPD and in situ EMPD lesions.
Background Vertical invasion of extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) is associated with poor prognosis. The usual vertical invasion route is directly downward or along the skin appendages. High-frequency ultrasound (HFUS) can be used to measure the EMPD lesion thickness, and visualize the pseudopod extensions due to skin appendage involvement. It is a non-invasive method for evaluating the extent of vertical invasion in EMPD. Objective To investigate the value of HFUS in predicting the extent of vertical invasion in EMPD. Methods In this retrospective study, 85 patients with EMPD were divided into two groups based on the pathology: invasive EMPD (iEMPD) group (n = 13) and in situ EMPD group (n = 72). The clinical and HFUS features of both the groups were analysed. The different types of pseudopodia morphology on HFUS were as follows: no pseudopodia, irregular bottom, small sphere, short strip, long strip, vase shape and nodular convex. These were further stratified into low-risk and high-risk levels. Results The clinical features were comparable between the two groups (P > 0.05). There were significant differences between the two groups in the HFUS features (lesion thickness, lesion shape, bottom shape, layer involvement, pseudopodia morphology and colour Doppler blood flow signal; all P < 0.05). The distribution of the pseudopodia morphology types in the in situ EMPD and iEMPD groups was as follows: no pseudopodia, 30/72 and 0/13; irregular bottom, 5/72 and 0/13; small sphere, 5/72 and 0/13; short strip, 21/72 and 0/13; long strip, 8/72 and 3/13; vase shape, 3/72 and 3/13; and nodular convex, 0/72 and 7/13 (P < 0.05 for all). The sensitivity and specificity of high-risk pseudopodia in identifying iEMPD were 100% and 84.7%, respectively. Conclusions High-frequency ultrasound provides morphological information regarding EMPD lesions. Risk stratification for pseudopodia can help to distinguish between iEMPD and in situ EMPD lesions.
