Is sunlight an aetiological agent in the genesis of retinoblastoma?

M L Hooper1.   

Abstract

The incidence of unilateral, but not bilateral, retinoblastoma in human populations at different geographical locations increases significantly with ambient erythemal dose of ultraviolet B radiation from sunlight. This supports the hypothesis that sunlight plays a role in retinoblastoma formation.
