A Case of Chronic Pneumonitis of Infancy in Pediatric Interstitial Lung Disease
Hyun Oh Jang, Se Chang Ham, Young Kyoun Kim, Se Wook Oh, Yong Won Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(9):1085-1090.   Published online September 15, 2001
The interstitial lung diseases(ILD) comprises a large, heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by derangement of alveolar walls and alveolar capillary unit causing restrictive pulmonary dysfunction and disordered gas exchange. It is rare, especially in children, and the opinions on investigation and treatments are controversial. The classification of adult ILD is applied to that of children. But considering occurrence during the developing state of lung...
A Case of Acute Necrotizing Encephalopathy
Sung Kee Kim, Se Wook Oh, Young Kyoun Kim, Se Chang Ham, Yong Won Park, Sang Woo Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(8):954-958.   Published online August 15, 2001
This disease predominantly affects infants and young children living in Japan and Taiwan, and manifests itself as acute encephalopathy following viral infections. The hallmark of this encephalopathy is multifocal, symmetric brain lesions affecting bilateral thalamus, brainstem tegmentum, cerebral periventricular white matter and cerebellar medulla, which can be visualized by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Both the gray and white...
A Case of Ramsay-Hunt Syndrome
Ok Ja Jeong, Se Wook Oh, Se Chang Ham, Yong Won Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(12):1608-1612.   Published online December 15, 2000
Ramsay Hunt Syndrome was initially described by Ramsay Hunt in 1907 as herpes zoster of the geniculate ganglion. The frequency of RHS in patients with herpes zoster has been calculated to be about 1%. RHS affects mostly adults; however a small number of children with herpes zoster oticus have been reported. We describe a case of RHS in a healthy...
A Case of Branchio-Oto-Renal Syndrome
Sung Kee Kim, Young Gyun Kim, Se Chang Ham, Se Wook Oh, Yong Won Park, Sang Woo Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(7):983-987.   Published online July 15, 2000
Branchio-oto-renal(BOR) syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder. The pathophysiology of this syndrome is unknown. BOR syndrome has a wide range of clinical manifestations affecting the branchial, auditory and renal systems. Associated abnormalities of the face, lacrimal duct, palate and ureters have also been described. However, the major clinical findings associated and/ or ear pits, and renal anormaly. We experienced a case of a 15-day-old male...
Two Cases of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher Disease
Ho Seok Kang, Se Wook Oh, Yong Won Park, Chong Guk Lee, Sang Woo Kim, Ghi Jai Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(4):561-566.   Published online April 15, 2000
Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease(PMD) is a rare sudanophilic leukodystrophy with a reduced number of mature oligodendrocytes as well as diffuse central nervous system hypomyelination(dysmyelination) due to abnormal synthesis of proteolipid protein. PMD is characterized with pendular nystagmus, stridor, delay in psychomotor development, hypotonia, ataxia, athetosis and extrapyramidal signs. Abnormal high signal intensity is shown in the entire white matter of cerebrum and...
A Case of Bilateral Vocal Cord Paralysis in Neonate
Young Kyoun Kim, Seung Cheol Lee, Se Wook Oh, Sang Woo Kim, Jae Hyung Park
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(4):558-561.   Published online April 15, 1998
Neonatal vocal cord paralysis is the second most common laryngeal anomaly, which accounts for approximately 10% of all congenital laryngeal lesions. Neonate with bilateral vocal cord paralysis are charactenzed with a glottic obstruction which usually shows dyspnea and inspiratory stridor. Treatment of bilateral vocal cord paralysis in neonate have two major goals : restore proper breathing and retain the voice. Tracheostomy is the best...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(4):503-511.   Published online April 15, 1996
Purpose : This study was aimed at determining whether tri-iodinated compounds with greater solubility and low osmolality, Na or meglumine ioxaglate(Hexabrix 320, Guerbet Lab., France) had deleterious effects on renal function after cardiac angiography for the evaluation of congenital heart disease(CHD) and determining whether correction of dehydration using iv hydration given before cardiac angiography were effective in prventing renal dysfunction.

Spinal epidural hematoma results from various causes such as use of anticoagulants, hemorrhagic diathesis, pregnancy, labor, arteriovenous malformation and spinal anesthesia as well as idiopathic orgin. We report a 3-year-old boy who was found to have spinal epidural hematoma and presented with lower back pain and fever. He developed paraplegia of lower legs after two consecutive lumbar punctures during two days....
A Case of Hypothalamic Hamartoma with Gelastic Seizure Only

Hypothalamic hamartoma is a congenital anomaly presenting precocious puberty, gelastic seizure and mental retardation. Other possible accompanying anomalies are cleft palate, tetralogy of Fallot, skeletal malformation and anal malformation. But the patient describing here manifested gelastic seizure only with isosignal mass of 1.5cm in diameter situated just behind optic chiasm in T1WI and T2WI of MRI. His EEG showed multifocal...

Unilateral lung agenesis is defined with absence of parenchyme, supporting structures and airway below the level of the carina. Lung agenesis is associated with other anomaly of cardiovascular system, musculoskeletal system and genitourinary system in about 50% cases. In most cases, the diseases is found due to respiratoru problems. Prognosis is variable but largely depends on the associated anomaly and...
