Abstract

Three cases of angiolymphoid hyperplasia have been treated with retinoic acid (Ro-10.9359). These three cases with a characteristic histological picture had been resistant to other previous treatment. The lesions improved markedly during the first month of treatment and finally 50 to 75% reduction of tumor sizes were obtained.
