Interpretation of the Consensus Document for Management of Retinoblastoma by India Council for Medical Research

Retinoblastoma (RB) is a malignant tumor that occurs mainly in children under 5 years of age.In recent years, the treatment of RB has been progressing, and the development of new methods and treatment strategies is of great significance to improve the survival rate and eye conservation rate of RB patients.However, in low- and middle-income countries, the number of patients with advanced RB is gradually increasing and the survival rate is declining due to poor economic conditions and limited medical resources.To this end, the Indian Council for Medical Research (ICMR) has drafted Consensus Document for Management of Retinoblastoma.This article interprets this document and provides personalized recommendations for the treatment and management of patients with intraocular and extraocular retinoblastoma in low- and middle-income countries based on the specific stage of unilateral/bilateral RB.
