Overview

The incidence of retinoblastoma in United States is approximately .43 cases per 1000,000 children under 15 years of age.[1] The median age at diagnosis of retinoblastoma is 18 months. The average age at diagnosis of retinoblastoma for children with unilateral disease and bilateral disease is 24 months and 12 months respectively.[2] Retinoblastoma affects males and females equally.[3] There is no racial predilection to the development of retinoblastoma.[3]

Epidemiology and Demographics

Incidence

  • The incidence of retinoblastoma in the United States has been reported to be between 5 to 7 cases per 100,000 live births.[4]

The incidence of retinoblastoma in United States is approximately .43 cases per 1000,000 children under 15 years of age.[1] The age-adjusted annual incidence in children aged 0 to 4 years is 1.0 to 1.4 cases per 100,000 children(approximately one in 14,000–18,000 live births).[5] In the US, there are 250 to 350 new cases of retinoblastoma per year. Retinoblastoma presents with cumulative lifetime incidence rate of 1 case of retinoblastoma per 18,000 to 30,000 live births worldwide.[6] 90% of the retinoblastoma cases are diagnosed before three years of age.

Age

  • The median age at the time of diagnosis is 18 months.[2]
  • The average age at diagnosis of retinoblastoma for children with unilateral disease and bilateral disease is 24 months and 12 months respectively.[3]
  • However, cases of newly diagnosed retinoblastoma have been reported in children as old as 18 years and even in adults.[7][8][9][10]
  • In adult,retinoblastoma tends to present between 20 to 50 years of age.[11]
  • Trilateral retinoblastoma is a well-recognized syndrome that occurs in 5% to 15% of patients with heritable retinoblastoma and is defined by the development of an intracranial midline neuroblastic tumor, which typically develops between the ages of 20 and 36 months.

Gender

Retinoblastoma affects males and females equally.[2]

Race

There is no racial predilection to the development of retinoblastoma.[2]

Region

  • India has the highest incidence of retinoblastoma with approximately 1500 new cases annually.[12]
