Abstract
To report the occurrence and management of secondary choroidal infiltration in two retinoblastoma (rb) patients. Fundus examination and imaging with spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT), B-scan ultrasonography (B-scan), and ultrasound biomicroscopy (UBM). Case 1: A 19-month-old girl with multifocal unilateral group B rb pretreated with intravenous chemotherapy (IVC) was referred for further management. At 3.5 years of age, routine 3-Tesla magnetic resonance imaging (3T-MRI) revealed an asymptomatic pinealoblastoma that underwent resection and adjuvant intensive IVC. Concomitant ophthalmic follow-up revealed a recurrence 8.3 × 2.8 mm at the posterior pole nasally to the optic disc on B-scan, localized within the choroid on SD-OCT and 3T-MRI. With high dose IVC ongoing, total regression of the choroidal mass was confirmed on SD-OCT already after 3 weeks. At 6-month follow-up, choroidal and pineal tumors were in complete remission. Sadly, the child died of intravascular disseminated coagulation-like disease after the 5th IVC. Case 2: A heavily pretreated 20-month-old girl with bilateral rb was referred for persistent vitreous seeding in her remaining eye (OD). Three months after intravitreal chemotherapy and chemo...Continue Reading
