Common variable immunodeficiency(CVID) is a heterogeneous immunodeficiency syndrome characterized by hypogammaglobulinemia, recurrent bacterial infections, and a variety of immunological abnormalities. We report a 10-year-old boy diagnosed with CVID and a fatal case of measles. He was admitted for fever, cough, conjunctival injection with purulent discharge and maculopapular rash with some scattered pinpoint sized petechial lesions on the whole body for...

Dapsone in a Case with Chronic Recurrent Henoch-Schönlein Purpura
Jin Choi, Soo Jung Lee, Dae Kyun Koh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(11):1574-1578.   Published online November 15, 1999
The most clearly delineated condition with prominent cutaneous leukocytoclastic vasculitis which presents to a pediatrician is Henoch-Schönlein purpura. There is general agreement that in Henoch-Schönlein syndrome the skin manifestations have a very benign long-term course and that corticosteroids are of little value. Dapsone appears to be of special value in diseases characterized by an accumulation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils notably leukocytoclastic...
Follow up of a Case of Primary Intestinal Lymphangiectasia
Su Jeong Ha, Soo Jung Lee, Dae Kyun Koh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(10):1452-1458.   Published online October 15, 1999
Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia is a rare congenital disorder characterized by diffuse or localized ectasia of the enteric lymphatics, often in association with lymphatic abnormalities elsewhere in the body. The pathogenesis of these abnormal lymphatic structures is uncertain. Ectatic lymphatics may be located in the mucosa, submucosa, or subserosa, leading to a loss of protein and lymphocytes into the gut or...
A Case of Congenital Pelger-Huet Anomaly
Soo Jung Lee, Young Yoo Kim, Seung Won Kang, Jong Wan Kim, Kyung Tai Whang, Sung Ho Cho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1992;35(11):1578-1583.   Published online November 15, 1992
Congenital Pelger-Huet anomaly is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by incomplete nuclear segmentation of neutrophils without functional disturbance. The morphology of these mature but hyposegmented neutrophils may be confused with that of immature neutrophils (bands), thereby suggesting bacterial infection. We experienced a case of congenital Pelger-Huët anomaly on routine hematologic examination in a 7-year old boy who was admitted because of...
