    Early Coats' disease was cautiously treated with xenon arc photocoagulation. Abnormal vessels persisted initially but were obliterated after 9 months, showing treatment efficacy for this rare condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Ophthalmology
    • Medical Research

    Background:

    • Coats' disease is a rare condition characterized by abnormal blood vessels in the retina.
    • Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for preserving vision.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present a case of early Coats' disease treated with xenon arc photocoagulation.
    • To evaluate the efficacy of xenon arc photocoagulation in obliterating abnormal retinal vessels.

    Main Methods:

    • A cautious approach using xenon arc photocoagulation was employed.
    • The patient's retinal vessels were monitored during the follow-up period.

    Main Results:

    • An adequate initial reaction to photocoagulation was observed.
    • Abnormal vessels persisted in the initial follow-up.

  • Complete obliteration of abnormal vessels was achieved 9 months post-treatment.
  • Conclusions:

    • Xenon arc photocoagulation can be an effective treatment for early Coats' disease.
    • Delayed obliteration of abnormal vessels may occur after treatment.
    • Cautious application of photocoagulation shows promise in managing Coats' disease.
