Exudative retinal detachment in a pediatric patient with Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome
Patients with RSTS have a wide spectrum of ophthalmic manifestations. Our patient demonstrated marked peripheral retinal avascularity and vascular leakage, ultimately resulting in a novel finding of sub-retinal exudation. Laser to the avascular retina led to initial regression of the exudation, however the patient ultimately developed a focal tractional detachment requiring surgery.
