The diagnosis of patients with PUMs at home and abroad is primarily based on clinical features, which are easily missed or misdiagnosed. In recent years, oncologists have commonly used two types of biopsies to confirm the diagnosis of patients with PUMs: fine-needle aspiration biopsy(FNAB)and transvitreal retinochoroidal biopsy(TVRC). At present, there are few systematic studies on the application of FNAB and TVRC in the diagnosis of PUM. This paper reviews the clinical safety, sampling methods, and clinical significance of these two biopsy methods in the diagnosis of PUM.
