  • Title: Biopsy of human scleral-chorioretinal tissue.
    Author: Peyman GA, Fishman GA, Sanders DR, Apple DJ, Vlchek JK.
    Journal: Invest Ophthalmol; 1975 Sep; 14(9):707-10. PubMed ID: 1158637.
    Abstract:
    The usefulness of a technique for scleral-chorioretinal biopsies was evaluated on a human eye destined for enucleation due to a malignant melanoma of the choroid. The operative procedure was without complication. The biopsy specimen was removed and carefully evaluated both by light and electron microscopy. The underlying choroid and retinal tissues were successfully preserved by this technique.
