Abstract

Carcinoma metastatic to the choroid was diagnosed in three patients by cytopathologic examination of subretinal fluid. The specimen was obtained using a scleral depressor modified to allow controlled aspiration of subretinal fluid through a sharp, angled, 30-gauge needle. This new method provides a useful tool for accurate diagnosis of carcinoma metastatic to the choroid in cases where the diagnosis is in question.

摘要

通过对视网膜下液进行细胞病理学检查，三名患者被诊断为脉络膜转移性癌。标本是使用一种改良的巩膜压迫器获取的，该压迫器经过改良后可通过一根尖锐的、成角的30号针头对视网膜下液进行控制性抽吸。这种新方法为在诊断存疑的情况下准确诊断脉络膜转移性癌提供了一种有用的工具。
