Zusammenfassung:An 83-year-old woman with a long-standing history of both invasive and vulval extramammary Paget’s disease (EMPD) was referred to a tertiary gynaecological oncology service for suspicion of contiguous extension to the vagina and cervix. Vaginal biopsies confirmed EMPD; however, a loop excision of the cervix demonstrated invasive adenocarcinoma arising from Paget’s disease. The patient subsequently underwent laparoscopic radical hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy and radical upper vaginectomy, confirming FIGO stage 1B1 cervical adenocarcinoma. She was recommended but declined to have adjuvant pelvic external beam radiotherapy. To our knowledge this is the second case of invasive cervical adenocarcinoma arising from vulval Paget’s disease in the literature.
