Abstract:
The authors experienced a case of retinoblastoma in a two-year-old female who had recurrent hyphema and marked erythematous lid swelling. We treated her for orbital cellulitis and hyphema, but those lesions were not improved. Finally, we performed enucleation for confirming the etiology of a disease which was pathologically proven to be retinoblastoma.
