Retinoblastoma, one of the most common intraocular malignancies in infants and young children, seriously affects the vision and life. The in-depth study of the origin and pathogenesis of retinoblastoma, which remain controversial, is crucial. This article summarizes the research progress on the cell origin of retinoblastoma and the second hit theory, aiming to provide a theoretical basis for the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of retinoblastoma.
