    Twenty children with retinoblastoma are reviewed who were treated at the University Hospital, Kuala Lumpur over a 10-year-period. They constitute 6.6% of childhood malignancies and without exception all presented with advanced disease. Hereditary cases were notably absent in the the series probably because past cases have almost invariably succumbed without an opportunity to transmit the gene. With enucleation and radiotherapy six of the patients have survived from 2 to 12 years. The addition of vincristine and cyclophosphamide has not been associated with improved survival.

    A total of 89 histopathologically proven ocular tumours and tumour-like lesions treated in Hospital University Sains Malaysia, Kubang Kerian, Kelantan over a period of nine years were reviewed for their age distribution, site of lesion and histological type. The tumours were observed in all age groups with a maximum prevalence in the first decade. Twenty lesions were malignant and 69 were benign. The eyelid was the most frequent location (51%), followed by the conjunctiva (32%). Retinoblastoma was the most common malignant tumour (10 cases) and dermoid cyst was the most common tumour-like lesion (16 cases).
