Trilateral retinoblastoma (TRb) is a rare combination of unilateral or bilateral retinoblastoma with an ectopic midline intracranial neuroblastic neoplasm (primitive neuroectodermal tumour) usually in the area of pineal gland or sellar region. TRb can occur with both familial and sporadic forms of retinoblastoma. An occurrence of this rare tumour in a 12-year-old boy who had unilateral retinoblastoma in association with ectopic suprasellar primitive neuroectodermal tumour (PNET) is reported here. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case report in Pakistan on TRb with suprasellar mass.
三边性视网膜母细胞瘤(TRb)是一种罕见的疾病组合,表现为单侧或双侧视网膜母细胞瘤合并异位中线颅内神经母细胞瘤(原始神经外胚层肿瘤),通常位于松果体区或鞍区。TRb可发生于家族性和散发性视网膜母细胞瘤。本文报道了一名12岁男孩患罕见肿瘤的病例,该男孩患有单侧视网膜母细胞瘤并伴有异位鞍上原始神经外胚层肿瘤(PNET)。据我们所知,这是巴基斯坦首例关于伴有鞍上肿块的TRb病例报告。
