Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(4):389-392.   Published online April 15, 2003
Netherton's syndrome is an unusual disorder which consists of triad of ichtyosiform dermatosis, multiple defects of hair shaft and an atopic diathesis. The finding of bamboo hair is pathognomic in Netherton's syndrome and the ichthyosiform dermatosis may consist of either ichtyosis linearis circumflexa or congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. Often, variability in the clinical features leads to a delay in diagnosis in...

A Case of Korean Patient with Nonketotic Hyperglycinemia; Diagnosed Based on CSF Amino Acid Analysis and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Kie-Young Park, Ai-Rhan Kim, Ki-Soo Kim, Soo-Young Pi, Tae-Sung Ko, Jung-Hee Lee, Han-Wook Yoo
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(7):993-999.   Published online July 15, 2000
Nonketotic hyperglycinemia is an extremely rare congenital metabolic disorder, which is caused by the lack of a glycine cleavage system. The onset of hyperglycinemic symptom is during the neonatal or early infant period. Progressing grave neuromotor dysfunction is one of the main symptoms. They include myoclonic seizure, hiccup, apnea, decreased deep tendon reflex, lethargy and coma. The prognosis is mostly very poor. Furthermore, there...
