Coats disease is an idiopathic retinal vasculopathy characterized by telangiectasia and aneurysm of retinal vessels along with intra and subretinal exudation and fluid. While Coats disease is classically described in young male population, there is an adult variant of Coats disease presenting in adulthood. Adult onset Coats disease have a similar presentation but a slower progression, localised lipid deposition, both peripheral and juxta-macular involvement. In this review article, we have attempted to describe in detail the characteristic clinical features, pathogenesis, investigation modalities and treatment in adult-onset Coats disease.
coats 病是一种特发性视网膜血管病变,其特征为视网膜血管的毛细血管扩张和动脉瘤,伴有视网膜内和视网膜下渗出和积液。虽然 coats 病在年轻男性中经典描述,但也存在成人变异型 coats 病,在成年期发病。成人发病的 coats 病具有相似的表现,但进展更缓慢,局部脂质沉积,累及周边和近黄斑区。在这篇综述文章中,我们试图详细描述成人发病 coats 病的特征性临床特征、发病机制、检查方法和治疗。
