Abstract
Application of a modified periodic-acid Schiff's procedure (PAS) technique in frozen section analysis of surgical margins of vulvectomy specimen in Paget's disease is described. The reaction obtained using a microwave procedure takes only 30 seconds. This method was found to be useful in identifying Paget cells on the margins thought to be free of disease by conventional histological evaluation.
