Overview
The hallmark of retinoblastoma is leukocoria which is an abnormal appearance of the retina as viewed through the pupil, also known as amaurotic cat's eye reflex. Other common symptoms include strabismus and proptosis. The clinical presentation depends on the stage of the disease.
History and Symptoms
History
- History of a patient with retinoblastoma may be included on the following factors:[1]
- Perinatal history of:
- Pregnancy complications
- Early birth
- Low brth weigth
- Use of oxygen
- Personal history of:
- Exposure to pets
- Recent trauma
- Systemic illness
- Family history of:
- Genetic disease
- Blindness
- Eye surgery due to a tumor
- Visual problems in the childhood (ambelyopia)
- Perinatal history of:
- Clinical features of retinoblatoma are approximately the same in variable studies and the common findings are as follow:[2][3][4]
- Abnormal appearance of the pupil (leukocoria, also known as amaurotic cat's eye reflex), (Please see below).
- Deviation of look to one side (strabismus) (especially when the macula is involved)
- Decreased visual acquity
- Painful red eye
- Loss of vision
- Presenting symptoms in adult onset of the tumor are insidious and are such as:[5]
- Dimness of vision
- Perception of floater
- Pain and redness
- Advanced and/or metastatic form of the tumor also presents with constitutional symptoms such as:
- Patients with retinoblastoma may also present with delay in developmental milestones and intellectual disability which may be perceived by their caregivers.[7]
- Intellectual disability may be the result of accompanying disease or with no clear reason.
- Chromosome 13q14 deletion may cause retinoblastoma and intellectual disability.
- Retinoblastoma has been also reported in a patient with Fragile x syndrome.
