Leucocoria and exophthalmia were the most frequent presenting complaints in 50% and 25% of the cases respectively. The median lag time was 38 ± 67,7 days. Eight patients were operated and 75% underwent enucleation. Three patients received adjuvant chemotherapy. Death occurred in 6 cases (75%) within a year after surgery. Late arrival to the hospital and increased lag time before surgery were the main factors worsening the prognosis.
