Improvement of scleromyxedema associated with isotretinoin therapy.
    Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1991, Volume: 24, Issue:5 Pt 2

    The treatment of scleromyxedema has been largely ineffective. We report improvement of scleromyxedema with myopathy after treatment with isotretinoin, 40 mg twice a day. We review other therapeutic modalities used for this disorder and discuss properties of isotretinoin that may have contributed to the favorable response.

[Scleromyxedema therapy with isotretinoin].
    Zeitschrift fur Hautkrankheiten, 1988, Feb-15, Volume: 63, Issue:2

    We report on a 56-year-old male patient suffering from scleromyxedema, who was successfully treated with isotretinoin (13-cis retinoic acid, Roaccutan). After 10 months therapy, we observed considerable reduction of the cutaneous infiltration and the skin thickening; the papular eruptions had almost completely disappeared. The mobility of the joints, however, could only be slightly improved.
