Congenital pulmonary valvular stenosis was relieved by percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty during cardiac catheterization on 8 children aged 14 months to 8 years. Before dilatation, the transpulmonary systolic pressure gradients ranged from 33 mmHg to 79 mmHg (Mean:52.00 ± 18.16 mmHg). There were significant reduction in the transpulmonic systolic pressure gradients immediate after balloon dilatation (Mean:17.38±11.16mmHg). In follow up 4 patients, this decreased pressure gradients have...

We studied clinically on changing pattern of 256 patients with typhoid fever in children, who were hospitalized in the Department of Pediatrics Hanyang University Hospital for 14 years 8 months from May 1972 to December 1986. We divied two group: one, in the seventies (1972-1979), 175 patients; the other, in the eighties (1980 -1986), 81 patients and compared with each other. The results were as...
