    Coats' disease, disciform macular lesion
    Description
    Coats' disease with disciform macular lesion. There is accumulation of periodic acid-Schiff-positive staining material within and under the retina peripherally (upper left), in association with telangiectatic retinal vessels (arrow , upper right) . A fibrous nodule is present under the retina in the macular area (lower views). The lami­nated appearance and partial pigmentation suggest that this fibrous nodule is in part derived from hyperplastic retinal pigment epithelium (lower right).
