Epidemiological and Genetic Considerations in Retinoblastoma
Retinoblastoma is usually initiated by a random mutation of a gene in a retinal
cell. It is important to try and recognise if the child has germline retinoblastoma,
as this may affect both eyes of the child. Siblings and future children of the child
with retinoblastoma are at greater risk of developing this cancer.
