Retinoblastoma simulating Coats' disease: a clinicopathologic report.

Abstract

A case report of a male infant with leukocoria and a clinical picture of Coats' disease is presented. The correct diagnosis was suggested by contact B-scan ultrasonography, which demonstrated an exophytic mass with calcification compatible with retinoblastoma. The value of this technique in the differential diagnosis of retinoblastoma is discussed.
