[Results of treatment in cases with bilateral retinoblastoma (author's transl)]
Abstract:
Immediate and late results of treatment in 132 cases with bilateral retinoblastoma (the children were aged between two months and six years) were analyzed. Combined treatment comprised enucleation of the more affected eye, further chemotherapy, X-ray treatment and photocoagulation. Cytostatic compounds used were "TET" (analogous to "TEM") and "Prospidin". Of the treated children, 44.8% are alive; the period of observation ranged from seven to 16 years.
