AB  - A  14-month-old  boy  was  referred  by  his  pediatrician  because  a  whitish  reflex  from  his  left  pupil  (Figure  16-1)  was  noticed  by  his  parents  in  certain  directions  of  gaze.  It  was  also  noted  on  a  few  recent  photographs.  His  pediatrician  had  checked  the  pupillary  light  reflex  and  indeed  noted  a  dimmer  and  tan-colored  reflex  from  the  left  pupil  as  opposed  to  a  brighter  and  more  reddish  reflex  in  the  left  eye.  She  referred  the  child  for  further  evaluation  and  management.  Dilated  fundus  examination  revealed  a  single  large  tumor  in  the  left  eye,  occupying  more  than  50  percent  of  the  globe.  Ultrasonography  showed  a  pattern  consistent  with  calcifications  within  the  tumor,  and  suggestive  of  retinoblastoma.  A  magnetic  resonance  imaging  (MRI)  scan  showed  no  evidence  of  optic  nerve  or  intracranial  involvement.  There  were  no  other  tumors  in  either  eye.  There  was  no  family  history  of  retinoblastoma.  A  decision  was  made  to  enucleate  the  eye  because  of  the  size  of  the  tumor.
