Extrarenal manifestations of hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) have increasingly been recognized and may be major determinants of mortality and morbidity.

We describe here a 10-month-old boy with HUS who developed pulmonary hemorrhage, acute respiratory distress syndrome and dilated cardiomyopathy. Complete renal...

Its infection occurs through the ingestion of the cyst form, and the disease begins when the trophozoite, converted at the small intestine, adheres to colonic epithelial cells with a latent period of two days to four...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2006;49(7):796-799.   Published online July 15, 2006
Multicystic dysplastic kidney and congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung are independent disorders, but both result from abnormal morphogenesis during embryogenesis. Congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation of the lung is associated with renal anomalies as well as other extrapulmonary anomalies and almost all cases with these anomalies are stillborn. We report a case of a 21-month-old male who was...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(5):545-551.   Published online May 15, 2001
Purpose : The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the maternal hypertension on the lipid peroxidation and antioxidant status of the newborn rat lung. Methods : We used adult female SHR(essential hypertension, 1b, A, 6-8 weeks), Sprague-Dawley white rats as a model of hypertensive dams. Breeding was accomplished by allowing female and male rats to cohabit overnight....
