title: [Traction detachment in Coats disease].
abstract: Immunocytochemical examination of a subretinal membrane removed during vitrectomy from a patient suffering from Coats' disease revealed macrophages, fibronectin, and vimentin. Vimentin is considered to be a marker of mesenchymal cells. Fibronectin may represent a guide rail and scaffold for the cellular organization of subretinal exudates.
