Unrelated stem cell transplantation after reduced-intensity conditioning plus rituximab for Epstein-Barr virus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis with CNS involvement
Hee Jo Baek, Hoon Kook, Dong Kyun Han, Min-Cheol Lee, Tae Woong Jeong, Tai Ju Hwang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2009;52(6):725-729.   Published online June 15, 2009
Epstein-Barr virus-associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (EBV-HLH) with central nervous system (CNS) involvement is usually fatal unless stem cell transplant (SCT) is offered. However, SCT with conventional intensity conditioning is associated with high transplant-related mortality. We describe our experience with unrelated SCTs after reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) for patients with EBV-HLH with progressive CNS disease. This approach was associated with minimal toxicities and...

Hoi Seok Choi, Sung Hwan Kim, Hiroyuki Ida, Hyun Ju Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(5):611-618.   Published online May 15, 2000
Purpose : We performed the study to determine the clinical characteristics and natural history of Gaucher disease with CNS involvement in Korea as well as to determine whether gene analysis would be helpful in the identification of neuronopathic Gaucher disease. Methods : We described the initial symptom, clinical manifestations, age of onset, clinical neurophysiologic findings and brain MRI findings from the...

Congenital acute leukemia is a rare disorder with approximately 200 cases reported. It is defined as a childhood leukemia occurring at birth or before 1 month of age at a rate of 1%. Acute leukemias are generally classified according to morphology, cytochemistry and cell surface marker expression. Most leukemias conform to an ordered lineage-specific pattern of gene expression, but a...
