Abstract:
We report the clinical evolution of two elderly male patients with extramammary Paget's disease who were treated with radiotherapy. Both cases primarily involved the scrotum and penile root, and were not associated with any underlying or visceral malignancy. The total doses administered were 6000 cGy and 3000 cGy, respectively. A good clinical response was achieved in both cases. No major side effects were observed. The patients are being followed for any signs of recurrence and have been completely asymptomatic to date
