The management of retinoblastoma
Retinoblastoma (Rb) is the most common primary intraocular malignancy of childhood, but an uncommon paediatric cancer, with a constant incidence worldwide of 1:15,000-1:20,000 live births. Despite its rarity, Rb has served as a cornerstone in the field of oncology in many of the aspects that comprise cancer management, including classification schemes,

From 7% to 10% of all retinoblastomas and from 44% to 71% of familial retinoblastomas in developed countries are diagnosed in the neonatal period, usually through pre- or post-natal screening prompted by a positive family history and sometimes ...

Update on pathology of retinoblastoma [PDF]
Retinoblastoma is caused by mutational inactivation of both alleles of the RB1 gene, which maps to chromosome 13q14 and encodes retinoblastoma protein that acts as a tumor suppressor.

Mutation and Cancer: Statistical Study of Retinoblastoma
Based upon observations on 48 cases of retinoblastoma and published reports, the hypothesis is developed that retinoblastoma is a cancer caused by two mutational events.

Retinoblastoma is a radiosensitive malignancy of neuroblastic origin that primarily affects young children. Its relatively low incidence belies its potential importance in the understanding of tumor biology in general. A case is made for referral of all retinoblastoma patients to centers with retinoblastoma protocols.

Explainable AI for Retinoblastoma Diagnosis: Interpreting Deep Learning Models with LIME and SHAP
Retinoblastoma is a rare and aggressive form of childhood eye cancer that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment to prevent vision loss and even death. Deep learning models have shown promising results in detecting retinoblastoma from fundus images, but

Retinoblastoma is a rare cancer of the infant retina that is diagnosed in approximately 8,000 children each year worldwide. It forms when both retinoblastoma gene (RB1) alleles are mutated in a susceptible retinal cell, probably a cone photoreceptor precursor.

Treatment of Retinoblastoma: What Is the Latest and What Is the Future
The management of retinoblastoma, the most common intraocular malignancy in children, has changed drastically over the last decade. Landmark developments in local drug delivery, namely, safer techniques for intravitreal chemotherapy injection and ...
