Su-Jin Park, Ji Young Baek, Junjeong Choi, Kyung Won Kim, Myung Joon Kim, Myung Hyun Sohn, Kyu-Earn Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2010;53(1):103-105.   Published online January 15, 2010
Thymolipoma is a rare benign tumor of anterior mediastinum. Most patients are asymptomatic with incidental finding of the tumor during a diagnostic workup of other medical problems. We present a case of 13-year-old girl with anterior mediastinal thymolipoma, surgically removed after an incidental diagnosis.
A Case of Polyarteritis Nodosa in Childhood
Jung Ho Seo, Dong Soo Kim, Myung Joon Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(4):456-459.   Published online April 15, 2001
Polyarteritis nodosa(PAN) is a multisystemic disease primarily involving the small and medium- sized vessels. Prognosis depends on the presence and severity of visceral involvement. Gastrointestinal involvement in PAN may result in vague abdominal pain, nausea and melena. Angiography can be used to establish a diagnosis of PAN. We report a case of polyarteritis nodosa presenting with recurrent abdominal pain, melena...

Risk factors for Pulmonary Interstitial Emphysema(PIE) in Mechanically Ventilated Neonates with Hyaline Membrane Diseas
Shin Won Yoon, Chul Lee, Jeong Nyun Kim, Ran Namgung, Dong Gwan Han, Myung Joon Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(3):318-326.   Published online March 15, 1997
Purpose : Pulmonary interstitial emphysema(PIE) is a common and serious complication of mechanical ventilation in infants with hyaline membrane disease. This abnormal collection of gases has two basic roentgenographic features; linear and cyst-like radiolucencies. High positive inspiratory pressure was found to be the most significant parameter associated with development of fatal pulmonary interstitial emphysema. Without prompt conservative management such as lowering peak inspiratory...
Renal size as a Prognostic Factor in Childhood Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia
Soo Kyung Yun, Chang Hyun Yang, Chuhl Joo Lyu, Seung Hwan Oh, Kir Young Kim, Myung Joon Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(2):174-179.   Published online February 15, 1994
The Kidney size is of special interest during the diagnostic work up of acute lymphocytic leukemia. But is still uncertain whether a finding of kidney enlargement at presentation has long-term prognostic value. We therefore reviewed the kidney size in children with acute lymphocytic leukemia by abdominal ultrasonograms at the time of diagnosis (n=54) and examined if there was any statistical...

A Case of Congenital Hypopituitarism Presenting Ectopic Pituitary Gland and Pituitary Stalk Transection Identified by Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Do Seong Kim, Kyung Eun Oh, Duk Hi Kim, Myung Joon Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1992;35(6):809-815.   Published online June 15, 1992
The syndrome of congenital hypopitutarism is a rare but well recognized entity. The typical clinical picture consists of presentation in infanncy with hypoglycemia, microgenitalia, and evidence of multiple anterior pituitary hormone deficiencies, but not diabetes inspidus. Recently, magnetic resonance imaging has disclosed a consistent abnormality in many patients with congenital hypopituitarism as well as idiopathic hypopituitarism characterized by an adenohypophysis...

Longitudinal Change of Cerebral Blood Flow Velocity in Neonates with the Doppler Technique
Kook In Park, Dong Gwan Han, Ran Namgung, Chul Lee, Jin Suk Suh, Myung Joon Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1992;35(1):60-68.   Published online January 15, 1992
Eighty-one asymptomatic preterm, term-SGA, and full term infants who were delivered at Yonsei University Severance Hospital from January to July 1990 were studied with color duplex imaging doppler sonography to assess the postnatal changes of the cerebral blood flow velocity longitudinally. Pulsatility index (PI) and area under the velocity curve (AUVC) were calculated to quantitate changes in anterior cerbral artery blood...
A case of neonatal herpes simplex virus encephalitis.
Kook In Park, Young Mo Sohn, Dong Soo Kim, Ran Namgung, Chul Lee, Dong Gwan Han, Won Young Lee, Ki Keun Oh, Myung Joon Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1991;34(9):1276-1285.   Published online September 30, 1991
Neonatal herpes simplex virus infection still remains a life-threatening infection for the newborn. With an increasing incidence of genital herpes and an increase in the incidence of neonatal herpes simplex virus infections, it is important that pediatricians and neonatologists continue to maintain a high index of suspicion in infants whose symptoms may be compatible with herpes simplex virus infections so that early identification leads...
