title: Cutaneous malignant melanoma and bilateral retinoblastomas: a case report and review of the literature.
abstract: Retinoblastoma survivors following successful treatment have a predilection to develop other malignant neoplasms. This report describes a patient with bilateral retinoblastomas diagnosed and treated early in life, who developed cutaneous malignant melanoma 20 years later. In our review of the literature only 5 cases with this association have been reported. We would like to report the sixth case.
