Topic: Coats Disease, Leukokoria

Coats disease (16% of leukokoria) is a sporadic unilateral idiopathic retinal telangiectasia that produces a lipoproteinaceous subretinal exudate. The diease is usually unilateral (up to 80%). The globe has normal size but increased attenuation and signal intensity from hemorrhage without calcification or enhancement.

Without Tx, this may lead to complete retinal detachment.
