Extramammary Paget’s remains a rare neoplastic condition, which although shares the name with Paget’s disease of the breast, is a distinct entity. The condition predominantly affects the epidermis of the vulval skin of postmenopausal women. In this case series, we present the cases of two geriatric patients who were diagnosed with this rare condition and the different treatment options available in managing the disease. Despite its rarity, understanding of this neoplastic condition is vital due to its potential for misdiagnosis and its impact on patient quality of life.
