The expression of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) in the control, dermatitis, and Paget disease groups. a bFGF expression was significantly higher in the Paget disease group than in the control and dermatitis groups (**p < 0.001, respectively). b VEGFA expression showed no significant difference among the three groups. The correlations of bFGF expression with c the average blood vessel density (BVD) and d the ratio of the blood vessel lumen area to nipple area. bFGF expression was strongly correlated with the average BVD (r = 0.818, p < 0.001) and the ratio of the blood vessel lumen area to nipple area (r = 0.503, p = 0.006)
