Genetic teaching for the retinoblastoma patient.
Retinoblastoma is the most common primary intraocular tumor in children. Retinoblastoma can be hereditary (familial) or nonhereditary (nonfamilial). Nurses who have an understanding of the genetic patterns for retinoblastoma can participate in the counseling of these patients. A chart is provided as a tool for teaching patients about family patterns of retinoblastoma.
