Clin Exp Pediatr. 2018;61(6):187-193.   Published online June 25, 2018
Purpose

The efficacy of percutaneous stent implantation for congenital heart disease (CHD) in Korea, where stent availability is limited, has not been determined. This study evaluated the acute and midterm results of stent implantation in different CHD subgroups.

Methods

Stents were implanted in 75 patients with 81 lesions: (1) pulmonary artery stenosis (PAS) group, 56 lesions in 51 patients; (2) coarctation of the...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2013;56(9):396-400.   Published online September 30, 2013
Purpose

The purpose of this study was to share our experience of transcatheter closure of small patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) by using an Amplatzer vascular plug (AVP).

Methods

We reviewed the medical records of 20 patients who underwent transcatheter closure at Samsung Medical Center and Sejong General Hospital from January 2008 to August 2012. The size and shape of the PDAs were evaluated...

Eun Young Choi, Min Sik Kim, Hey Sun Lee, Young Min Ahn, Kyung Joon Min
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1989;32(7):1023-1029.   Published online July 31, 1989
The syndrome of Mixed Gonadal Dysgenesis is characterized by a unilateral testis, usually intra- abdominal a streak gonad on contralateral side, persistent Mullerian structures and ambiguous genitalia. These patients are chromatin negative and exhibit XO/XY mosaicism, probably resulting from a cytogenetic error very early in embryogenesis. The testis and the streak gonad should be removed because of the potential devlopement of a gonadoblastoma and the virilization...

This 5 day aged female neonate manifested gigantism, facial nevus flammeus, macroglossia, Promi- nent occiput, unusual linear fissures in lobule of external ear, omphalocele, gall bladder hydrops, and mild hypoglycemia. A brief review of related literature was done.
