Clinical Study of Ophthalmic Arterial Infusion Chemotherapy Combined with Intravenous Chemotherapy in the Treatment of Children with Retinoblastoma
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of ocular arterial infusion chemotherapy(IAC)combined with intravenous chemotherapy(IVC)in the treatment of children with retinoblastoma(RB).Methods:A total of 92 patients(113 eyes)with RB in the hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were randomly divided into group A(46 patients,58 eyes)and group B(46 patients,55 eyes).Group B was treated with IAC combined with local treatment,and group A was treated with IAC combined with IVC.Eye protection rate,recurrence rate,metastasis rate,1-year survival rate,complication rate,and tumor marker levels[neuron-specific enolase(NSE)and glycoprotein antigen 153(CA153)]before and after chemotherapy were compared between the two groups.Results:There were no significant difference in eye preservation rate,metastasis rate and 1-year survival rate between 2 groups(x2=0.021,0.261,0;P>0.05).The recurrence rate of group A was lower than that of group B,with statistically significant difference(x2=3.265,P<0.05).After 3 cycles of chemotherapy,the serum NSE and CA153 levels in group A were lower than those in group B(t=3.470,2.920;P<0.05).Conclusion:Compared with IAC alone,IAC combined with IVC can effectively reduce the recurrence rate and serum levels of NSE and CA153 in RB children,but the incidence of myosuppression complications is higher.
