Trilateral retinoblastoma is characterized by the presence of retinoblastoma with an intracranial tumor. The incidence is low and prognosis poor. Due to the paucity of information regarding successful treatment, we report the case of a 6 month old female referred for leukocoria and found to have an associated suprasellar tumor and pineal enhancement. The patient, treated with standard infant brain tumor therapy, remains alive without signs of active disease 35 months after diagnosis; no surgery or irradiation was used. Early diagnosis of trilateral retinoblastoma may facilitate the use of less intensive therapeutic approaches and result in excellent outcomes in these patients.
三侧性视网膜母细胞瘤的特征是存在视网膜母细胞瘤和颅内肿瘤。发病率低,预后差。由于关于成功治疗的信息有限,我们报告了一例 6 个月大的女性,因白瞳就诊,发现有相关的鞍上肿瘤和松果体增强。该患者接受了标准的婴儿脑肿瘤治疗,在诊断后 35 个月仍无疾病活动迹象,未行手术或放疗;存活至今。早期诊断三侧性视网膜母细胞瘤可能有助于采用较少强化的治疗方法,并为这些患者带来良好的结果。
