A 44-year-old female patient was admitted to our department with diagnosis of malignant lymphoma. The abdominal USG and CT showed multiple liver lesions with partial portal vein thrombosis, moderately increased alfa-fetoprotein (AFP), ASAT, ALAT (2x normal value), serology was negative for HBV and HCV. Liver transplantation was suggested but refused because of portal vein thrombosis. ATRA (45 mg/m2/day orally) was given on the basis of the assumption that HCC and acute promyelocytic leukaemia share similar oncogenic pathway (alter the RAR alpha and beta receptors). She was gained 15 kg-s and has resumed her work as a teacher for the last 20 months. Abdominal CT showed a complete regression of the intrahepatic tumour.

D014212 Tretinoin An important regulator of GENE EXPRESSION during growth and development, and in NEOPLASMS. Tretinoin, also known as retinoic acid and derived from maternal VITAMIN A, is essential for normal GROWTH; and EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT. An excess of tretinoin can be teratogenic. It is used in the treatment of PSORIASIS; ACNE VULGARIS; and several other SKIN DISEASES. It has also been approved for use in promyelocytic leukemia (LEUKEMIA, PROMYELOCYTIC, ACUTE).
