BACKGROUND: Extramammary Paget disease (EMPD) is a rare, slow growing neoplasm that presents most commonly in the anogenital region of older adults. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the difference in local recurrence rates of EMPD in patients treated with wide local excision (WLE) versus Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS). MATERIALS AND METHODS: A systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis were performed. Inclusion criteria were adults greater than 18 years of age with a diagnosis of EMPD who have undergone surgical intervention and had follow-up data. Studies were independently reviewed by 2 coinvestigators with discrepancies resolved by the principal investigator. RESULTS: Twenty-seven studies met the inclusion criteria. Patients had a 2.67 times higher chance of local recurrence after WLE than MMS (95% confidence interval [CI]:1.47, 4.85; p =.001). Meta-analysis of single-arm studies revealed a 7.3% local recurrence rate after MMS (95% CI: 0.039, 0.107; p <.001) versus a 26.3% recurrence rate after WLE (95% CI: 0.149, 0.376; p <.001). After excluding recurrent tumors, the odds ratio for recurrence in WLE versus MMS was 2.3 (95% CI: 0.285, 18.43, p =.435). CONCLUSION: There is a clinically and statistically increased risk of local recurrence of EMPD after WLE compared with MMS. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
