AbstractA 22-month-old girl with Group C unilateral retinoblastoma demonstrated dramatic tumor regression after two infusions of 5 mg of intra-arterial melphalan as primary therapy. Complete tumor control without recurrence was noted at 1 year. Retinal and choroidal perfusion was intact and the electroretinogram improved following therapy.Copyright 2011, SLACK Incorporated.
