Abstract
SummaryRetinal detachment may occur in advanced retinoblastoma or be induced by recent therapy as intra‐arterial chemotherapy.First line intra‐arterial chemotherapy was proposed recently as a new conservative treatment for retinoblastoma patients. It offers good tumor control. Incidence of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment will be detailled as the evolution over time. Treatment options will be discussed, including scleral buckle surgery and surgical outcome.In our recent serie, secondary retinal detachment occurred in 16/30 cases (50%). Scleral buckle surgery with anterior chamber ponction was performed without drainage of sub‐retinal fluid. Retinal reapplication was obtained with scleral buckling in all patients. The early treatment of this complication is important for salvage of the globe and visual function.
