Eligibility Criteria

1 Year - 20 Years (Child, Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • patients with intraocular retinoblastoma of Group A-D

Exclusion Criteria:

  • (1) patients with intraocular retinoblastoma of group E; (2) patients with extraocular spread; (3); media opacities such as corneal opacity, significant cataract, or vitreous hemorrhage obscuring fundus examination; (4) patients who were allergic to verteporfin or other benzoporphyrin derivatives.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To study the effectiveness and safety profiles of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for the treatment of human retinoblastoma.
Detailed Description
Retinoblastoma is the commonest primary intraocular malignancy in infancy and early childhood. Ophthalmologist are trying to seek other more safe and effective treatment modalities to well control the tumor and preserve the visual function. Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a potentially therapeutic approach for retinoblastoma which has been underestimated. In this study, we are gonging to investigate the the effectiveness and safety profiles of photodynamic therapy (PDT) for the treatment of human retinoblastoma.

Intervention Description
PDT with Visudyne® was performed under general anesthesia according to the standard TAP study with some modifications: Verteporfin (6 mg/m2, Visudyne®; Novartis International AG, Basel, Switzerland) was injected intravenously with a standard 10-min infusion followed by followed by application of diode laser (Opal Photoactivator; Coherent Medical Group, Santa Clara, USA) (689 nm, 50 J/cm2, 600 mW/cm2) for 200 seconds to generate 120 J/cm2.
