- Paget's disease of the breast occurs in 0.5–5% of all breast cancer cases and is invariably associated with underlying malignancy either overt or occult.
- The majority of these cases are invasive disease although 40 – 45% are associated with ductal carcinoma in situ.[1]
- WHO revealed that there are 800,000 up to 1 million new cases of breast cancer each year.[2]
Age
- Paget's disease of the breast is more prevalent in postmenopausal women, usually after the sixth decade of life, but it has also been reported in adolescent and elderly patients.
Gender
- Females are more commonly affected with Paget's disease of the breast than males.
- Male breast cancer accounts for less than 1% of all breast cancer and Paget's disease represents 1-3% of all breast malignancies.[3]
