Sung-Hee Park, So Young Park, Nam Kyun Kim, Su-Jin Park, Han Ki Park, Young Hwan Park, Jae Young Choi
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2012;55(8):297-300.   Published online August 23, 2012

Symptomatic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in patients with isolated atrial septal defect (ASD) is rare during infancy. We report a case of isolated ASD with severe PAH in an infant who developed airway obstruction as cardiomegaly progressed. The patient presented with recurrent severe respiratory insufficiency and failure to thrive before the repair of the ASD. Echocardiography confirmed volume overload on...

Yun Mi Kim, Byung Won Yoo, Jae Young Choi, Jun Hee Sul, Young Hwan Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2011;54(2):86-89.   Published online February 28, 2011

Traumatic ventricular septal defect (VSD) resulting from blunt chest injury is a very rare event. The mechanisms of traumatic VSD have been of little concern to dateuntil now, but two dominant theories have been described. In one, the rupture occurs due to acute compression of the heart; in the other, it is due to myocardial infarction of the septum. The...

Anomalous origin of left coronary artery arising from the right coronary cusp presenting with chest discomfort and syncope on physical exercise
Ran Baik, Nam Kyun Kim, Han Ki Park, Young Hwan Park, Byung Won Yoo, Jae Young Cho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2010;53(2):248-252.   Published online February 15, 2010
Anomalous origins of coronary arteries are a rare type of disease among children. These anomalies can be categorized into 3 types according to the anatomical relationship of the aorta and pulmonary trunks. Among these types, the interarterial type, as observed in our case, needs early diagnosis and treatment, because it can increase the risk for the patient, causing sudden cardiac...
A Case of Multiple Giant Coronary Aneurysms with Large Mural Thrombus due to Kawasaki Disease in a Young Infant
Eun Na Choi, Jeoung Tae Kim, Yuria Kim, Byung Won Yoo, Deok Young Choi, Jae Young Choi, Jun Hee Sul, Sung Kye Lee, Dong Soo Kim, Young Hwan Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(3):321-326.   Published online March 15, 2005
Kawasaki disease is an acute systemic vasculitis of unknown origin. Giant coronary aneurysm is one of the most serious complications, although peripheral artery vasculitis can produce life-threatening events. Myocardial ischemia and infarction can be caused by coronary artery stenosis, aneurysm, and stagnation of blood flow in coronary arteries which triggers thromboembolism. Atypical presentation in young infants often interferes with prompt...

Characteristics of Pulmonary Atresia and Ventricular Septal Defect According to Morphologic Classification and Changes of Pulmonary Artery after Modified B-T Shunt
Kise Nam, Jeong Hoon Kim, Jae Young Choi, Jun Hee Sul, Sung Kue Lee, Young Hwan Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(3):304-309.   Published online March 15, 2004
Purpose : The purpose of this study is to help determine the optimal time and method for operation of pulmonary atresia(PA) with ventricular septal defect(VSD). Methods : Seventy patients who were diagnosed as PA with VSD in the Pediatric Department of Cardiology, Severance Hospital between May, 1991 and April, 1995, were included in our study. Subjects were divided into two groups...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2004;47(1):36-43.   Published online January 15, 2004
Purpose : We will present our mid-term result of transcatheter closure of PDA with Duct-Occlud device(pfm. AG. Germany) after 12 months follow up and report the problems during the procedure. Methods : In total 154 patients, the Duct-Occlud devices were inserted in our institute from March, 1996 to August, 2002. Three types of Duct-Occlud device, i.e standard, reinforced, reinforced reverse cone...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(3):390-394.   Published online March 15, 2002
College of Medicine, Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea Wilms tumor is the second most common malignant retroperitoneal tumor. Inferior vena cava and right atrial involvement is found in about 4-10% and 0.5-3% of cases, respectively. But, right ventricular involvement has not been reported. We experienced a case of Wilms tumor with right ventricular invasion in a 2 year-old male who presented intermittent...
