Abstract Retinitis pigmentosa(RP) is a set of hereditary retinal diseases. We describe a patient who suffered retinitis pigmentosa secondary to adult coats' disease. The patient had undergone pars plana vitrectomy(PPV),intravitreal injection of anti-VEGF drugs as well as steroids. Eventually, the patient had a good anatomical result postoperatively.
