The incidence of malignant disease increases in kidney transplant recipients taking immunosuppressive therapy. Extramammary Paget’s disease, a very rare dermatologic malignancy, is characterized by frequent recurrences and coexistence with other malignancies. Although skin cancer is the most common malignancy occurring after kidney transplantation, extramammary Paget’s disease has not been reported in Korea. In this paper, we report a case of recurrent extramammary Paget’s disease after renal transplantation. A 66-year old man, who underwent renal transplantation from a living unrelated donor 15 years ago, was diagnosed to have extramammary Paget’s disease 7 years ago. At this admission he was troubled with a pruritic skin lesion in his suprapubic area which previously occurred twice. The recurring Paget’s disease was treated with radical resection and coverage. No further recurrences have been developed during the following 12 months until now.
