The management of "coats' response" in a patient with x-linked retinitis pigmentosa-a case report.
[coats disease]
The
management
of
exudative
retinal
detachment
in
Coats
disease
can
be
very
difficult
with
variable
results
.
A
case
is
presented
of
a
12
year
old
boy
who
was
diagnosed
with
X-
linked
retinitis
pigmentosa
with
an
associated
"
Coat
's
Response
"
.
The
patient
had
a
marked
reduction
in
his
left
visual
acuity
due
to
intragel
and
subhyaloid
haemorrhage
as
well
as
exudative
retinal
detachment
.
This
was
managed
successfully
with
vitrectomy
and
endolaser
,
resulting
in
clearance
of
the
haemorrhage
and
flattening
of
the
retina
.
In
our
experience
endolaser
should
be
considered
as
viable
therapeutic
option
in
the
management
of
this
condition
.
