Abstrakt: Introduction: Children with retinoblastoma have anesthesia for exams and treatment, but there is little information about how long treatment interventions (laser, cryotherapy, and intravitreal injections) add to routine exams under anesthesia (EUA). This information would be useful for planning operating room schedules, staff schedules, family expectations, and billing.
Methods: A retrospective, single-center, Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved review of anesthesia duration for retinoblastoma children undergoing EUA with laser, cryotherapy, or intravitreal injections performed at MSK between January 2019 and November 2023.
Results: Three hundred eight patients had 2,399 EUAs. The average EUA lasted 24.3 min (range 7-77 min) when no interventions were done. Laser photocoagulation added an average of 18.9 min (range 19-77 min), cryotherapy 26.1 min (range 27-75 min), and intravitreal injection 23.5 min (range 10-71 min) to the basic EUA time. Bilateral laser treatments took 8 min longer than unilateral treatments.
Conclusion: EUAs for children with retinoblastoma can be performed relatively quickly. Interventions such as laser, cryotherapy, or intravitreal injections roughly double the time under anesthesia but in some cases can take much longer (>1 h).
