PURPOSE To evaluate the impact of intravitreal bevacizumab combined with laser vascular ablation in the management of advanced Coats' disease presenting with exudative retinal detachment. METHODS This was a retrospective review of 24 children that presented with exudative retinal detachments associated with advanced Coats' disease. Mean patient age was 62 months (range 9-160 months). Presenti...

PURPOSE The aim of this report was to demonstrate a case of Coats disease in a patient with concurrent anisometropic amblyopia. OBSERVATIONS A 10-year-old boy was diagnosed with Coats disease during routine ophthalmic examination. Visual acuity was 20/20 OD and 20/50 OS with cycloplegic refraction of +1.25 (OD) and +3.25 (OS). Examination under anesthesia showed macular exudates in the left e...

We describe a case of untreated adult-onset Coats' disease with a proliferative epiretinal membrane (ERM) treated successfully with 25-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (25GPPV). A 26-year-old man presented with a 3-week history of decreased vision in his left eye. At the initial examination, the decimal best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.7 in the left eye. Ophthalmoscopy revealed the typical ...

PURPOSE To describe the spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) findings in a case of Coats' disease, with emphasis on the intraretinal exudates. METHODS Case report of a 4.5-year-old girl who presented with total exudative retinal detachment and organized exudates in a stellate configuration. SD-OCT was performed before and after treatment, which included surgical drainage of s...
