The retinal detachment is usually exudative. Herein, we describe a case of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment with detectable retinal break in a patient with Coats\u2019 disease.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Case presentation<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>A 15-year-old Indo-Aryan male patient presented with sudden painless diminution of vision in his right eye of 4\u00a0days duration. Upon examination, the anterior segment in both eyes and left fundus was within normal limits. Dilated fundus evaluation of the right eye revealed telangiectasia of the retinal vessels, with subretinal exudation in superotemporal and superonasal quadrants and presence of subretinal fluid in the superotemporal area extending into fovea. There was also presence of single flap horseshoe tear in the superotemporal quadrant at around the 10\u00a0o\u2019clock position in the equatorial region, with no secondary changes. The retina was reattached with encircling band buckle combined with vitrectomy and silicon oil tamponade. Seven\u00a0months post vitrectomy, lenticular opacification developed, for which he underwent silicon oil removal, along with lens aspiration and implantation of foldable intraocular lens. Over the period of 1\u00a0year, his best corrected visual acuity improved from 6\/60 to 6\/18 in the affected eye at the last follow-up visit. The recovery was uneventful following the subsequent surgery.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Coats\u2019 disease has a remarkable diversity in clinical presentation and morphology. The disease can also present with an underlying break, which may not be attributed to any iatrogenic modality. The treatment modalities in coats\u2019 disease should be tailored individually due to the low incidence of the disease and the great variation in severity upon presentation. Prompt management restores the best possible anatomical outcome and maintains good vision.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s13256-021-03221-6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,31]],"date-time":"2021-12-31T00:02:47Z","timestamp":1640908967000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Rhegmatogenous retinal detachment in Coats\u2019 disease: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9161-4440","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Simanta","family":"Khadka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raghunandan","family":"Byanju","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sabina","family":"Parajuli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"3221_CR1","first-page":"440","volume":"17","author":"G Coats","year":"1908","unstructured":"Coats G.
