Biopsy for molecular risk stratification in uveal melanoma: Yields and molecular characteristics in 119 patients.

All three biopsy instruments provide similar cytological yields as post-enucleation sampling, although post-enucleation samples had a more successful chromosome microarray yield. Epithelioid cytomorphology alone is insufficient for prognostication in in vivo biopsies, immunohistochemistry would be a useful surrogate test.
