The article presents the results of the survey of 73 patients with retinoblastoma. Retinoblastoma is a rare intraocular malignant tumor of neuroectodermal origin, developing from immature retinal cells. It occurs mainly in children from birth to 5 years (90%). The analysis of the study results showed that 70% of patients were enrolled at advanced stages of tumor growth, and in 51 cases ​​enucleation of the eyeball was performed. The modern diagnostic methods and organ-saving treatment allowed to preserve the eyeball in 30% of patients.

Key words: retinoblastoma, ultrasound investigation, enucleation, chemotherapy.
