Overview

The prognosis for people with Paget's disease of the breast is primarily determined by the underlying tumor. Unfavorable prognosis is seen in cases with palpable breast tumor, enlarged lymph nodesand in patients younger than 60 years of age. Prognosis is worse in males than in females. Mean survival was found to be 80.0 months for males and 108.2 months for females. Five-year survival rate has been reported to be 20-30% in males, compared to 30-40% in females. This has been hypothesized to be due to the small size of mammary gland in males.

Prognosis

  • The prognosis for people with Paget's disease of the breast depends on a variety of factors, and is primarily determined by the underlying tumor.
  • Some factors indicate an unfavorable prognosis, such as:[1][2]
  • Prognosis of Paget's disease is worse in males than in females.
