Tumor Size Criteria For Group D And E Eyes In The International Classification System For Retinoblastoma: Effect On Rates Of Globe Salvage And High-Risk Histopathologic Features

Our retrospective analysis suggests that a large tumour size criteria for Group E retinoblastoma have no clinical basis, given that the LA classification system provided the greatest separation in globe salvage rates between Group D and E eyes. The LA classification system was also able to show a statistically significant difference in the rates of HE histopathologic features between Group D and E eyes. To avoid discrepancies in the literature, we recommend that centres use one uniform system for classifying advanced intraocular retinoblastoma.
