Preferred Label : Retinoblastoma;
NCIt related terms : RB; Retinoblastoma, NOS; RETINOBLASTOMA, MALIGNANT;
NCIt definition : A malignant tumor that originates in the nuclear layer of the retina. As the most
common primary tumor of the eye in children, retinoblastoma is still relatively uncommon,
accounting for only 1% of all malignant tumors in pediatric patients. Approximately
95% of cases are diagnosed before age 5. These tumors may be multifocal, bilateral,
congenital, inherited, or acquired. Seventy-five percent of retinoblastomas are unilateral;
60% occur sporadically. A predisposition to retinoblastoma has been associated with
13q14 cytogenetic abnormalities. Patients with the inherited form also appear to be
at increased risk for secondary nonocular malignancies such as osteosarcoma, malignant
fibrous histiocytoma, and fibrosarcoma.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: Cancer that forms in the tissues of the retina (the light-sensitive layers
of nerve tissue at the back of the eye). Retinoblastoma usually occurs in children
younger than 5 years. It may be hereditary or nonhereditary (sporadic).; CDISC: A malignant neoplasm originating in the nuclear layer of the retina.;
