Abstract

Importance: Children younger than 3 months of age and/or weighing less than 6kg have not been treated with Ophthalmic Artery Chemosurgery (OAC) because of concerns about causing scarring in the tiny femoral artery. Instead, they receive systemic chemotherapy.

Objective: To determine the feasibility, safety and efficacy of OAC for very young children who have unilateral and bilateral retinoblastoma.

Design: Retrospective, consecutive review of all children with retinoblastoma (unilateral and bilateral) treated with OAC in the first 3 months of life or if weighing less than 6 kg. treated at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC).

Setting: Single tertiary referral cancer center.

Participants: All children with retinoblastoma (unilateral or bilateral) treated with OAC (17 patients) in the first 3 months of life or weighing less than 6 kg.

Exposures: OAC delivered by microcatheter inserted in the femoral artery and through the internal carotid artery. Combinations of Melphalan, Carboplatin and Topotecan were delivered in 60 sessions via the ophthalmic artery in 17 patients.

Main outcome measure: Ocular salvage, serial ERG's, patient survival, second cancers, fever/neutropenia, transfusion of any blood product, groin bleeding or femoral artery occlusion and anesthetic complications CONCLUSION AND RELEVANCE: Very young children (< 3 months old and <6kg weight) with unilateral or bilateral retinoblastoma can be safely and effectively treated with OAC (intraarterial chemotherapy) without significant complications despite the fact that the majority had advanced intraocular disease (Reese-Ellsworth (RE)Vb or International Classification of Retinoblastoma (ICRb) "D" and "E"). This includes treating both eyes in the same session and as young as 5 weeks and weighing 3.6kg. This eliminates the need for systemic chemotherapy which is well known to be toxic to the youngest children.

眼动脉化疗治疗视网膜母细胞瘤3个月以下或体重6公斤以下婴儿。
重要性:3个月以下和/或体重不足6公斤的儿童一直未接受眼动脉化疗(OAC)治疗,因为担心会在微小的股动脉中造成疤痕。相反,他们接受的是全身化疗:目的:确定对患有单侧和双侧视网膜母细胞瘤的幼童进行眼动脉化疗的可行性、安全性和有效性:对纪念斯隆-凯特琳癌症中心(MSKCC)收治的所有视网膜母细胞瘤患儿(单侧和双侧)在出生后 3 个月内或体重不足 6 千克时接受 OAC 治疗的情况进行回顾性、连续性审查:单一三级癌症转诊中心:所有视网膜母细胞瘤患儿(单侧或双侧)在出生后3个月内或体重不足6公斤时接受OAC治疗(17名患者):OAC通过插入股动脉和颈内动脉的微导管给药。17名患者通过眼动脉分60次接受美法仑、卡铂和托泊替康的联合治疗:主要结果测量指标:眼球挽救率、连续 ERG、患者存活率、二次癌症、发热/中性粒细胞减少症、输血、腹股沟出血或股动脉闭塞以及麻醉并发症。
