Coats disease in a 3-week-old boy.
[coats disease]
Coats
disease
is
a
rare
,
idiopathic
retinal
vasculopathy
that
predominantly
affects
males
in
the
first
decade
of
life
.
We
report
the
case
of
a
3
-
week
-old
boy
who
presented
with
atypical
rapidly
progressing
disease
suggestive
of
Coats
exudative
vasculopathy
.
The
eye
developed
retinal
fibrosis
and
phthisis
bulbi
within
4
weeks
.
Retinoblastoma
could
not
be
ruled
out
,
although
histopathology
after
enucleation
revealed
no
retinoblastoma
.
To
our
knowledge
,
this
is
the
youngest
case
of
Coats
disease
to
be
reported
in
the
literature
.
This
case
highlights
the
wide
variation
in
the
clinical
presentation
of
Coats
disease
and
the
difficulty
in
differentiating
it
from
diffuse
infiltrative
retinoblastoma
.
