Abstract:
We present a case of a child with unilateral group E retinoblastoma (according to the International Classification of Retinoblastoma) who received superselective intra-arterial chemotherapy as primary therapy. Although the tumor showed signs of regression, the patient developed orbital metastases requiring surgical excision and chemotherapy. Eventually the affected eye progressed to total retinal detachment and required enucleation.
