Abstract
Results obtained from an animal test system for epidermal cytotoxic drugs prompted the topical use of 1% cycloheximide in the treatment of histologically confirmed superficial basal cell carcinomata of the skin. Excellent clinical clearing of lesions has been demonstrated and this has been confirmed by post treatment biopsies. Preliminary findings in solar keratoses and intraepidermal carcinomata of the skin are also reported.Keywords
