Renal manifestations in tuberous sclerosis complex
Il Cheon Jeong, Ji Tae Kim, You Sik Hwang, Jung A Kim, Jae Seung Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2007;50(2):178-181.   Published online February 15, 2007
Purpose : The renal manifestations of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) are remarkably diverse, including polycystic kidney disease, simple renal cysts, renal cell carcinomas, and angiomyolipomas. All of these occur in children as well as adults in TSC. Angiomyolipomas, which can cause spontaneous life-threatening hemorrhages, are by far the most prevalent and the greatest source of morbidity. Here, we will address...
Short Term Effect of Recombinant Human Growth Hormone Therapy in Children with Chronic Renal Failure
Si-Whan Ko, Dong-Kyu Ji
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(9):1256-1261.   Published online September 15, 1998
Purpose : Growth retardation is one of the major side effects of chronic renal failure. In this study, the short-term growth promoting effect, effect on the chemical parameters, and probable side effects of growth hormone treatment to child patients with chronic renal failure were examined. Methods : The research sample was 5 child patients diagnosed with chronic renal failure and receiving...
Myocardial Functions Estimated by Pulsed Doppler Echocardiography in Patientswith Chronic Renal Failure
Hyun June Huh, Byung Ho Choi, Myung Chul Hyun, Sang Bum Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(12):1712-1728.   Published online December 15, 1996
Purpose : The objectives of this study were to estimate myocardial functions in patients with chronic renal failure by pulsed Doppler echocardiography, and investigate correlation between Doppler and disease parameters. Methods : We studied 13 patients with chronic renal failure whose creatinine clearance rate less than 25ml/min. Using pulsed Doppler echocardiography with curve following method, we measured peak velocity, mean velocity, velocity-time integral and peak...
The Effect of Recombinant Human Growth Hormone on the Growth in the Children with Chronic Renal Failure
Sei Won Yang, Young Choi
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(7):997-1004.   Published online July 15, 1996
Purpose : We observed the effect of three year-administration of recombinant human growth hormone(rhGH) on the growth in the children with chronic renal failure(CRF). Methods : Five prepubertal children(three boys and two girls) with CRF, who had been managed by conservative methods, were given rhGH(1 U/kg/week) for three years. Growth parameters, such as growth velocity, height standard deviation score(SDS), and predicted final adult height, obtained...
Growth Promoting Effect of Recombinant methionyl-Growth Hormone in Children with Chronic Renal Failure
Heon Seok Han, Yong Choi, Hyung Ro Moon
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1992;35(10):1355-1360.   Published online October 15, 1992
The authors studied the growth-promoting effect of yeast-derived methionyl-hGH in short statured children with uremic chronic renal failure. The subjects were prepubertal chronic renal insufficient patients whose height standard deviation scores were below -2.0. Two boys and two girls participated in this study. Chronic renal insufficiency was the only cause for the short stature. HGH was given to the subjects in dose...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1992;35(8):1044-1050.   Published online August 15, 1992
The authors evaluated 19 childrenwith chronic renal failure patients diagnosed and followed up at the Department of Pediatrics, Seoul National University Hospital for the detection of acquired renal cystic disease (ARCD) with two radiologists by the means of ultrasonography. The results were as follows: 1) Of the 19 patients, male to femals ratio was 14:5 and of them, hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1990;33(7):970-976.   Published online July 31, 1990
A clinical study was carried out to evaluate the efficacies of rHuEPO (recombinant human erythropoietin) in anemia of 7 chronic renal failure patients under dialysis at Seoul National University Children's Hospital from Feb. 1989 to Nov. 1989. The results were as follows; - 1) There was progressive increase of hematocrit levels in all 6 hemodialysis patients and mainte- nance dosage of rHuEPO to sustain hemoglobin...

Young Seo Park, Chang Youn Lee, Hae Il Cheong, Yong Choi, Kwang Wook Ko, Je Geun Chi, Chang Bin Im
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1989;32(8):1155-1160.   Published online August 31, 1989
Juvenile nephronophthisis is a chronic tubulo-interstitial renal disease characterized by an early onset of polyuria and polydipsia, decreased urinary concentrating ability, anemia, growth retardation and progressive renal disease. It is recognized as an important cause of chronic renal failure in the childhood. However only one case was reported in the Korean literatures. In this paper we have reported the second documented case of juvenile...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1988;31(6):738-746.   Published online June 30, 1988
Present study was undertaken to see the various clinicopathologic findings and outcome on 18 children with chronic renal failure, who had been admitted to the Pediatric department of Kyungpook National University Hospital from 1978 to 1986. And the following results were obtained. Male to female ratio was 5 to 4 and in 15 out of 18 cases, renal failure developed after 5 years of...
Clinical Observation on Hemodialysis in Children with Chronic Renal Failure.

There had been total 21 children with end stage renal disease in whom hemodialysis was done in the pediatric dialysis unit of Seoul National University Children’s Hospital during the period from 1986. 3. 31 to 1987. 11. 30. And we took a retrospective review of their clinical data, and the results were as follows 1) Primary glomerular disease, H enoch-Schdnlein nephritis, and reflux nephropathy were...
