Four patients affected with keratoacanthoma have been treated with etretinate. In all the cases the tumors were either excessively large or located in peculiar sites. Etretinate was initially administered at the dosage of 1-1.3 mg/kg/die and then reduced at 0.3 mg/kg/die. All the tumors healed completely. During the treatment a slight cheilitis appeared in all the patients. One of them also experienced a transient hypertrigliceridemia and another an erythematous scaling dermatitis of the trunk and of palms.

Abstract

Four patients affected with keratoacanthoma have been treated with etretinate. In all the cases the tumors were either excessively large or located in peculiar sites. Etretinate was initially administered at the dosage of 1-1.3 mg/kg/die and then reduced at 0.3 mg/kg/die. All the tumors healed completely. During the treatment a slight cheilitis appeared in all the patients. One of them also experienced a transient hypertrigliceridemia and another an erythematous scaling dermatitis of the trunk and of palms.
