Yong Joo Kim, Ha Baik Lee, Hahng Lee, Eun Kyeong Hong, Hyun Chul Rhim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1995;38(12):1694-1700.   Published online December 15, 1995
Eosinophilic gastroenteritis(EG) is a chronic disorder in which edsinophils constitute the predominant cell type in the inflammatory infiltrates of the gastrointestinaHGD tract. This disease was first described by Kaiiser in 1937. The clinical symptoms and signs are variable according to the extent of the eosinophilic infiltration(diffuse versus cir¡ⓒ cumscribed) and the depth of the eosinophilic reaction (mucosal, muscular, serosal). Some...

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is an uncommon disorder of the stomach, small bowel, and colon, characterized by eosinophilic infiltration of the gut wall and peripheral blood eosinophilia. The clinical features depend on the site of eosinophilic infiltration. Patients with eosinophilic gastroenteritis may develop an exudative ascites containing eosinophils. We experienced a case of eosinophilic gastroenteritis in a 9 year old boy who had...
Longterm Follow Up of A Case of Eosinophilic Gastroenteritis

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis(EG) is a rare disease characterised histologically by eosinophilic infiltration of the gut wall. The clinical features depend on which layer and location are involved. Patients may be divided into three clinical groups as predominantly mucosal, muscle layer, or subserosal disease based on the histological site of eosinophilic infiltration of the bowel wall, although there is lften considerable overlap....

Eosinophilic gastroenteritis is a rare disorder of unknown etiology characterized by protein losing enteropathy, peripheral eosinophilia and iron deficiency anemia secondary to gastrointestinal blood loss. It is often accompanied by signs of systemic allergy. This case of a 26-month-old male patient who developed scrotal edema and diarrhea for a month had peripheral eosinophilia ranged from 24 to 32% of total leukocyte,...
A Case of Idiopathic Hypereosinophilic Syndrome
Bin Cho, Jin Tack Kim, Joon Sung Lee, Kyoo Hong Cho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(7):1020-1027.   Published online July 15, 1994
The idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome(HES) represents a heterogenous group of disorder characterized by prolonged eosinophilia of undetectable cause and multiorgan system dysfunction. Bone marrow is the most frequentry involved organ, but the most severe clinicopathologic involvement is heart. The major cause of death in patients with the HES is cardiac dysfunction especially congestive heart failure resulted from endocardial fibrosis and restrictive cardiomyopathy. We...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(1):47-53.   Published online January 15, 1994
Eosinophilia is a common finding in premature babies during the neonatal period. Serial eosinophil counts were determined in 94 hospitalized, appropriately grown premature infants whose gestational ages ranged from 28 to 36 weeks. The incidence, sseverity and etiologic factors of eosinophila were retrospectively studied in premature infants, who were divided into three groups according to their gestational age. The results were...
Eosinophil Cationic Protein in Relation to Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness in Asthmatic Children
Jin Tack Kim, Joon Sung Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(12):1707-1715.   Published online December 15, 1993
The eosinophil is the major cell responsible for the inflammatory reaction in bronchial asthma. Secretion of granular components is probably of considerable importance for the inflammatory effects of the eosinophils, Eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) is the one of the secretory components of the eosinophil granule and is considered as an activation marker of eosinophil, Blood eosinophil count, serum concentration of...
Serum Eosinophil Cationic Protien(ECP) in Children with Atopic Astham
Dae Cheol Kim, Ha Baik Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(6):810-819.   Published online June 15, 1993
Eosinophils play a major role in the airway inflammation in asthma. To werify an association between airway responsiveness of asthmatics and eosinophil and/or ECP, we measured serum ECP in 23 children with atopic asthma during acute attacks and stable, and in 10 normal healthy controls. Peak flows were monitored in 15 children. The data suggest that serum ECP levels were higher...

A 12 year old girl suffering visual disturbance for 4 months, and polydipsia and polyuria for last 20 days revealed an ovoid homogeneous mass on enhanced sella turcica coronal CT scan and result of water deprivation test was compatible with that of diabetes insipidus. Subtotoal rescetion of the brownish soft mass (0.5 x 0.7 cm) of pituitary stalk was performed neurosurgically, and histologically the...

e A study of eosinophilia in premature infants was performed to determine if eosinophilia could be an index of weight gain in premature infants. Thirteen premature infants born at 30-37 week's gestation and cared at N.M.C. from Jan, *80 to Aug. ’80 were included in this study. The results were as follows: 1. Eosinophilia (>700/mm3) was documented in 69.2% (9/13). 2.There...
