Comparison of Cytopathology Yield of Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy Using 25G versus 27G Needles for Melanocytic Uveal Tumors

2024-11-11

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> /Objectives: To evaluate whether fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of melanocytic uveal tumors (MUT) using 27-gauge (27G) needles yields aspirates like those obtained using 25-gauge (25G) needles for cytology. <h4>Methods:</h4> A retrospective review conducted on 32 primary uveal melanomas. Tumors were sampled at three adjacent sites first using a 27G needle for gene expression profile (GE...
