Here we explore the presentation of retinoblastoma with its histopathological features and treatment outcome in a tertiary eye care center in Bangladesh. Method: This was a retrospective study of 70 eyes of 60 patients in a ten years period from 2006 to 2016 who had met the criteria regarding demographic profile, clinical presentation, management and histopathology. Tumor was classified based on IIRC (International Intraocular Retinoblastoma Classification) for intraocular tumor and IRSS (International Retinoblastoma Staging System) for extraocular tumor by reviewing the data revealed from EUA, imaging and histopathology. Result: The mean age of presentation was (Table 1) 31.3 ± 21.68 months, range was 4 months to 96 months and the most frequent presenting age was 12 months. Fifty three percent of children presented between 13 months and 59 months. Mild male predominance was 53.3% (n = 32). Unilateral cases were 71.3% (n = 43) and 6.7% (n = 4) of patients had positive family history. The most common presenting sign was leucocoria (85%) followed by strabismus (18.3%) and proptosis (13.3%). Fifty five (91.6%) children presented with intraocular tumor and 64.9% were with Group E. Enucleation (91.6%) was the prime treatment modality and histopathological risk factor was positive in 51.7% cases among 63.3% cases of primary enucleation. Fifty percent of treated children were in regular follow up. Conclusion: Most children presented delayed and prime treatment modality was enucleation. Only half of the patients were in regular follow up. Generation of awareness, proper referral, information regarding treatment availability and early detection of cases can increase the survival rate and globe salvage.","PeriodicalId":101752,"journal":{"name":"BOHR International Journal of Current Research in Optometry and Ophthalmology","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116109842","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: This retrospective study was carried out on the 48 eyes of 24 children who had undergone cataract surgery under general anesthesia. Age range was 2 to 8 years. All patients underwent primary posterior capsulectomy, primary in-bag intraocular lens (IOL) implantation, irrigation-aspiration of lens debris, and anterior vitrectomy. At intervals of one week, one month, three months, and six months, every case was evaluated. After 6 months best corrected visual acuity was recorded and intraocular pressure, anterior chamber angle, optic disc, and peripheral retina were evaluated. Results: Postoperative best corrected visual acuity were 6/6 in 10.4% eyes, 6/9-6/18 in 56.3% and <6/18 in 33% eyes. Intra ocular pressures were found within normal limit (12 ± 2.09 mm of Hg) in all cases. Anterior chamber angle was normal in 44 eyes (91.7%). Peripheral retina and vitreous were normal in all cases. No significant Optic disc changes were noticed. The most common cause of decreased vision was amblyopia (79.2%) in the fellow eye due to delayed surgery. Conclusion: Amblyopia is the main cause of decreased visual recovery in children after cataract surgery.

Worldwide newly detected cases per year are about 8000 and in India above 1400. It represents 11% of cancer that develops in the first year of life. The revolutionary management strategy has increased the survival rate of retinoblastoma above 95% in developed countries, and this rate is the highest among all pediatric cancers. But still, it is deadly cancer worldwide. Survival from retinoblastoma based on income >90% vs. 40% (in high to low-income countries). The incidence of metastasis is more in lower-income countries (32% vs. 12% in middle-income). Notably, Forty-three percent of the world’s estimated cases reside in only 6 countries in Asia (China, Indonesia, Philippines, India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh). The mortality rate varies on different continents. Worldwide estimated death from retinoblastoma is more than 40%, and most of them are from Asia and Africa. Bangladesh is one of the developing countries in the South-East Asia region, and retinoblastoma constitutes 83% of all pediatric cancer under 4 years of age. For proper management of retinoblastoma with an international standard, the establishment of a retinoblastoma center consisting of ocular oncologist, clinical oncologist, radiation oncologist, pediatrician, oculoplastic surgeon, retina specialist, pediatric ophthalmologist, and ocularist is needed. Management includes proper diagnosis, treatment of the disease, genetic counseling, regular follow-up, rehabilitation of survivors, and screening of siblings. Chittagong Eye Infirmary & Training Complex is a tertiary eye care center and one of the referral centers of Bangladesh and is treating retinoblastoma since its inception. Due to the demand of time, the hospital has been reorganized with various facilities to serve retinoblastoma patients with a team approach in 2017. From January 2017 to March 2022, a total of 304 patients were diagnosed. Among them, 132 received vincristine, etoposide, and carboplatin (VEC) chemotherapy from this center, and 79 underwent enucleation with the long optic nerve. Besides treatment, the hospital is conducting sibling screening, visual and psycho-social rehabilitation for the RB survivors, and community awareness programs.","PeriodicalId":101752,"journal":{"name":"BOHR International Journal of Current Research in Optometry and Ophthalmology","volume":"88 35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130793241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On 4 weeks of follow-up, intraocular pressure (IOP) was 39 mmHg on applanation tonometry, for which medical management was tried using a combination regime that was insufficient, following which a series of management approaches like trabeculectomy and Ahmed glaucoma valve (AGV) implant was done (in superotemporal quadrant). Unfortunately, recurrent exposures of the AGV tube were encountered, which were managed using different graft materials one after the other but were unsuccessful. Ultimately, AGV explantation and reinsertion at another site (in inferotemporal quadrant) was tried, which led to salvaging the eye with well controlled IOP, clear graft, and good visual function (best corrected visual acuity of 6/12p with +12.00/+1.50 × 90◦ ).

Methods: A randomized controlled trial of 1 year and 5 months, with 60 eyes from 60 patients having primary nasal pterygium. As indicated by inclusion criteria, they were chosen and randomized into two arms for conjunctival autograft: treated arm A (30) with autologous blood and arm B (30) with stitches (10-0 monofilament nylon). Preoperative and postoperative results were assessed and analyzed statistically. Follow-up was done at first, seventh, 1-month, 3-month, and half-year postoperative days. Resulting factors were total surgical time, postoperative comfort, graft stability, and recurrence. Results: 60 patients; mean age of 46.77 ± 7.04 (SD) in arm A (30) and 46.17±7.53 (SD) in arm B (30). In arm A, 22 males (73.3%) and 8 females (26.7%) where arm B had 20 males (66.7%) and 10 females (33.3%). Total surgical time in arm A was 24.73 ± 3.69 (SD) minutes and in arm B was 32.23 ± 4.59 (SD) minutes (p < 0.001). Follow-up at the 1st and 7th POD showed significant discomfort in arm B (mean ranks 41.82 and 40.62) compared to arm A (mean ranks 19.18 and 20.38), respectively (p < 0.001). At 1st POD, only 3 (10%) graft retractions in arm A. Within 6 months of follow-up, all grafts were stable; 1 (3.3%) recurrence and 1 (3.3%) granuloma in arm B only.

Due to unavailability of donor cornea, both patients were surgically managed with dried scleral patch graft temporarily to save the globe. Both patients underwent therapeutic keratoplasty one moth and one and half months respectively. Both patients gained better vision (6/18 and 6/24 respectively), quiet anterior chamber and no secondary glucoma after 6 month of keratoplasty.
