Photodynamic therapy for extramammary paget’s disease: A retrospective analysis of 15 cases

PDT shows promising results as a non-invasive treatment option for EMPD, providing a favorable balance between effectiveness and safety. The short-term efficacy of photodynamic therapy is highly encouraging; however, its long-term efficacy remains suboptimal. For patients who are unwilling or unsuitable for surgery, photodynamic therapy is a viable alternative. Although photodynamic therapy can achieve complete remission of lesions in some patients, its cure rate is relatively low, and there is a risk of recurrence. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to confirm these findings and investigate long-term outcomes.
