Purpose : We investigated whether ictal single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with prolonged injection of technetium-99m (99mTc) ethyl cysteinate dimer during repeated spasms can localize the epileptogenic foci in children with infantile spasms. Methods : Fourteen children with infantile spasms (11 boys, 3 girls; mean age, 2.2¡¾1.3 years) were examined. When a cluster of spasms was detected during video electroencephalography (EEG)...

We analyzed the clinical and laboratory features of ten children with acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (M7) and compared the findings with those reported in the literature. The diagnosis was supported by ultrastructural examination of platelet peroxidase or immunophenotyping for glycoprotein Iib/IIIa. Of the ten children, five were girls and five were boys. The median age at diagnosis was 13 months. Two...

Medulloblastoma and primitive neuroectodermal tumor(PNET) are relatively common intracranial neoplasms in childhood. Their extracranial metastasis were thought to be rare occurrences. But they are more frequent compared to other intracranial tumors. The most frequent site of metastasis deposits in medulloblastoma is bone, and metastasis to lymph node, peritoneum, liver or lung have been reported infrequently. The authors experienced three cases...
