Overexpression of Ki67 may be of prognostic value for patients with RbT as it has been shown in the present study that high expression was common in tumours with massive choroidal invasion, positive retrolaminar optic nerve invasion, positive surgical margin and advanced tumour stage, which are the conventional HHRFs associated with prognosis of RbT.
