Diffuse anterior retinoblastoma without retinal involvement.
Longmuir SQ, Syed NA, Boldt HC.
Ophthalmology. 2010;117(10):2034-8.
The patient underwent fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of anterior chamber fluid, the results of which were consistent with a primitive neuroectodermal neoplasm, either retinoblastoma or medulloepithelioma.

Atypical retinal astrocytic hamartoma diagnosed by fine-needle biopsy.
Shields JA, Shields CL, Ehya H, Buckley E, De Potter P.

As no calcification was found and subretinal fluid aspiration yielded many fat-laden macrophages without any evidence of retinoblastoma cells in addition to a high level of cholesterol, the difinitive diagnosis of Coats' disease was made.

This article reports the cytodiagnosis of three cases of retinoblastoma in children aged 1.5, 2.5, and 5 yr. Two of them were diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration cytology of the primary tumor and one by aqueous cytology.

Cytological examination by aspiration of the aqueous and the vitreous can be an additional useful technique to aid in the diagnosis of certain anteriorly located unusual appearances of retinoblastoma with opaque media, particularly if the information from ultrasound is not available or is unsatisfactory.
