RESUMEN

Retinoblastoma stands as a paradigm of success in treating malignancies among pediatric patients. Over recent decades, the approach to managing retinoblastoma has evolved significantly, transitioning from the preservation of patients' lives to the preservation of eyes and vision while minimizing treatment-related complications. Chemotherapy, administered through diverse routes, has solidified its role as the cornerstone of retinoblastoma treatment. In addition to intravenous chemotherapy (IVC), alternative administration routes, including intraarterial (IAC), intravitreal, intracameral, and periocular delivery, have emerged as promising modalities for retinoblastoma management. Numerous studies have demonstrated outstanding outcomes, achieving nearly 100% salvage rates for eyes classified under groups A-C. However, for advanced intraocular retinoblastoma (groups D and E eyes), IAC appears to offer superior local control rates compared to IVC. Intravitreal injection of chemotherapeutic agents, when administered in a controlled and secure manner, holds promise in averting the need for enucleation and radiotherapy in advanced retinoblastoma cases presenting with vitreous seeds. The optimal chemotherapy strategy remains meticulously tailored based on numerous factors. This review provides a comprehensive update on chemotherapy across various routes, encompassing key considerations, dosages, administration methods, treatment outcomes, and potential complications. Furthermore, it explores emerging potential treatments and outlines future directions aimed at enhancing treatment outcomes.

RESUMEN

Purpose: To investigate the efficacy and safety of selective intra-ophthalmic arterial combined nimodipine and alteplase infusion in patients with central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). Design: Non-randomized, prospective interventional study. Methods: All patients with CRAO who presented at our institute within 24 hours from CRAO onset from August 2020 to July 2022 were included. Intra-arterial nimodipine and alteplase were given selectively into the ophthalmic artery. Visual acuity was recorded during and after the procedure. Change in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) 1 month post-treatment, relative to baseline, was set as the primary outcome measure. Significant improvement in vision and adverse events are reported as secondary outcomes. Patients: Nine patients with non-arteritic CRAO were enrolled. Results: A total of nine patients with CRAO underwent selective intra-ophthalmic arterial nimodipine and alteplase injection. Overall, BCVA had statistically significantly improved by 0.78 logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution (logMAR) at 1 month compared with baseline (95% confidence interval: (-1.24, -0.31), p-value = 0.001). Seven (77.8%) patients had significant visual improvement (≥0.3 logMAR) at 1-month post-treatment. There were minor adverse events during administration of the nimodipine, including chemosis and headache, which resolved after the discontinuation of nimodipine. There were also asymptomatic thromboembolic events in 2 patients (22.2%) after the intervention procedure, without any morbidity or mortality. Conclusion: The use of selective intra-ophthalmic arterial combined nimodipine and alteplase was efficacious in improving BCVA at 1 month for patients with non-arteritic CRAO presenting between 24 hours from onset, with minor adverse events but no serious adverse events.
