Eun Kyoung Sohn, Byung Soo Cho, Chang Il Ahn

Renal biopsy is indicated in nephrotic syndrome when histopathologic types other than minimal change pattern or the secondary nephrotic syndrome are suspected. But renal biopsy in children has some limitation because of the technical problem. In order to assess the clinicopathologic correlation and to re-evaluate the biopsy indication, the clinical manifestations and histopathologic types were analyzed statisically on the 86 cases of childhood nephrotic syndrome...

Glanzmann’s thrombasthenia is a congenital disorder of platelet function with missing or abnormal platelet plasma membrane glycoprotein Ilb/IIIa which function as receptors for fibrinogen and other high-molecular-weight adhesive proteins which are important for platelet aggregation. We have experienced a case of thrombasthenia in a 12 month old male whose chief complaints were easy bruising and frequent epistaxis. The beeding time was prolonged in the...

More recently, several studies have been repotted about the abnormalities of auditory brainstem response (ABR) in hyperbilirubinemia of newborn. By using of ABR, visual evoked potenital and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, some investigators suggested that transient alteration in ABR in severely jaundiced neonates indicated reversible transient subclinical or clinical bilirubin induced neurotoxicity. They thought it would be the early stage of kernicterus. We experienced two...
