Enucleation is the surgery done to treat retinoblastoma and it is the safest way to remove retinoblastoma. Your doctor will conduct a retinal examination and take MRI scans, CT or CAT scans, and ultrasound imaging as well. The package typically includes the cost of the tests.
The drugs used at the time of chemotherapy to help reduce the tumor include vincristine (Oncovin), etoposide (Toposar), and carboplatin (Paraplatin). The medicine cost is generally included in the package when the patient is in the hospital. On the other hand, if the patient buys medicines outside the hospital, they are not included in the package.
The main types of treatment for retinoblastoma are radiation therapy, surgery (enucleation), and laser therapy (photocoagulation). Thus your stay at the hospital depends on the type of treatment you pursue. If chemotherapy is employed, it takes about 6 months to shrink the tumor.
