Abstract

We report an infant with normal neurological development and phenotype who developed bilateral retinoblastoma (RB). This patient, despite lack of dysmorphic features, demonstrated constitutional abnormality of the long arm of chromosome 13 on standard karyotype. We recommend systematic cytogenetic examinations complemented by fluorescent in situ hybridization as second-line screening in all patients suspected for hereditary RB despite negative RB1 molecular screening and normal phenotype.
