A malignant eccrine poroma responds to isotretinoin (13-cis-retinoic acid). Annals of internal medicine, 1983, Volume: 99, Issue:4 In treating a patient with a malignant eccrine poroma, in-vitro studies suggested resistance to dactinomycin and doxorubicin. A trial of weekly 5-fluorouracil produced no response. Likewise, a cycle of cisplatinum and cytarabine was associated with continued progression of the disease. Use of 13-cis retinoic acid induced a partial remission that lasted for 8 weeks with minimal toxicity. The mechanism of action is not known, but local tumor necrosis with sparing of the adjacent normal tissue suggests high specificity. Topics: Adenoma, Sweat Gland; Antineoplastic Agents; Drug Therapy, Combination; Humans; Isotretinoin; Lung Neoplasms; Male; Middle Aged; Neoplasm Invasiveness; Neoplasm Recurrence, Local; Neoplasms, Multiple Primary; Sweat Gland Neoplasms; Thigh; Tretinoin	1983
