Abstract
Background: It is rare for a patient with bilateral retinal detachment and choroidal detachment , and he also with bilateral diabetes retinopathy (DR) is even more rare, whicn makes the condition more complicated.
Case presentation: This article reportes a patient with atypical Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada disease(VKH).The patient developed severe peripheral retinal detachment with choroidal detachment and white pompon-like opacity in the vitreous along with diabetic retinopathy.Finally we considered Probable VKH with DR, and as per the VKH treatment was given with good results.
Conclusions: VKH can coexist with DR, and the manifestations of VKH are diverse.Considering for VKH, it is necessary to give early, aggressive and long-term treatment with high-dose corticosteroids ,DR will make the treatment more complicated, so immunosuppressants should be combined.
