OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to analyze the survival rate of reconstruction plates that were used to correct mandibular discontinuity defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We analyzed clinical and radiological data of 36 patients. Only discontinuous mandibular defect cases were included in the study. Reconstruction plate survival rate was analyzed according to age, gender, location of defect, defect size, and whether the patient underwent a bone graft procedure, coronoidectomy, and/or postoperative radiation therapy (RT). RESULTS: Plate-related complications developed in 8 patients, 7 of which underwent plate removal. No significant differences were found in plate survival rate according to age, gender, location of defect, defect size, or whether a bone graft procedure was performed. However, there were differences in the plate survival rate that depended on whether the patient underwent coronoidectomy or postoperative RT. In the early stages (9.25+/-5.10 months), plate fracture was the most common complication, but in the later stages (35.75+/-17.00 months), screw loosening was the most common complication. CONCLUSION: It is important to establish the time-related risk of complications such as plate fracture or screw loosening. Coronoidectomy should be considered in most cases to prevent complications. Postoperative RT can affect the survival rate and hazard rate after a reconstruction plate is fitted.

Objective:
This study determined the treatment outcomes of patients with retinoblastoma seen at a Philippine tertiary government hospital from January 2000 to January 2020.
Method:
This is a cohort study. Medical records of patients with histopathologic-proven retinoblastoma were reviewed and pertinent information on clinical profile and presentation, treatment and outcomes were recorded.
Results:
This study included 118 patients (146 eyes) with mean age at symptom onset of 7.4 + 6.6 months and mean age at consult of 11.5 + 13.7 months. There were 69 (47%) eyes with International Classification of Retinoblastoma (ICRB) stage E. The most common primary treatment was enucleation (n=137, 94%). The most common high-risk histopathologic feature was involvement of the optic nerve at the cut-end section (n=27, 34%). Only 14 patients (11%) completed treatment with median follow-up of 30.5 months (range 4- 122).
Conclusion
The rate of overall survival of patients with retinoblastoma is low in this study, similar to other developing countries. This can be due to higher proportion of patients with advanced stage at presentation and lower percentage of treatment completion. Early diagnosis and treatment may lead to better survival rate, visual outcome and quality of life. Due to limited data on follow-up, globe preservation could not be determined.

Background:
Retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular cancer in childhood in the Philippines. Most data
though on demographics, clinical profile, treatment options, and outcomes in the country are from the National
Capital Region.
Objectives:
This study aimed to describe the demographics, clinical profile, treatment done, and outcomes of
retinoblastoma patients seen in a public tertiary referral center in Davao from 2011-2020 to make available literature more representative of the status of retinoblastoma in the Philippines.
Methods:
An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted using the records of retinoblastoma patients seen in a tertiary government hospital located in Davao Region from January 2011 to December 2020.
Results:
There were 157 patients included in the analysis. Seventy-three (46%) were female with 44% coming from the Davao Region. One hundred seven (69%) patients had unilateral disease. Median age at initial consultation for patients with unilateral disease was significantly older than those with bilateral disease (p<0.003). Tumors were extraocular in 82 (40%) eyes. In the intraocular group, 36% of the eyes belonged to International Classification of Retinoblastoma (ICRB) Groups D and E. Enucleation was the most commonly performed treatment. Survival rate was 28%. This is the first report to provide epidemiologic and clinical data on retinoblastoma in the literature, including survival data, from Mindanao. Advanced stages and extraocular cases of retinoblastoma remain high. Delay of consultation contributed to the prognosis and clinical outcome of the disease.
Conclusion. Advanced stages and extraocular cases of retinoblastoma remain significantly high in the country, even in Mindanao.
