Chronic active Epstein-Barr virus infection(CAEBV) is a nonfamilial syndrome that shows a specific immunodeficiency for the Epstein-Barr virus(EBV). CAEBV is characterized by fever, lymphadenopathy, splenomegaly, hepatitis, interstitial pneumonitis, interstitial nephritis, and uveitis. Cardiovascular complications are rare in EBV infection. Patients with CAEBV show characteristically high titers of anti-viral capsid antigen(VCA) IgG antibody and anti-early antigen(EA) antibody, as well as relatively...

Bong Seong Kim, Jung Yeon Shim, Seung Il Park, Sung Hye Park, Soo-Jong Hong
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(7):1000-1005.   Published online July 15, 2000
Hemangioendothelioma is the most common vascular tumor in children, however hemangioendothelioma occurring in the bronchus is very rare. We experienced a case of hemangioendothelioma in the left main bronchus of an infant which was successfully removed by a sleeve resection. Respiratory distress developed in a 3-month-old female infant with roentgenographic finding of hyperinflation of the left lung. Chest CT and MRI revealed a highly...
A Case of Diffuse Aspiration Bronchiolitis in a Dysphagic Infant
Ok Ja Choi, Bong Seong Kim, ung Hye Park, Soo-Jong Hong
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(6):842-845.   Published online June 15, 2000
Diffuse aspiration bronchiolitis is defined as a clinical entity characterized by a chronic inflammation of bronchioles caused by recurrent aspiration of foreign particles. Clinical symptoms are bronchorrhea, bronchospasm, and dyspnea, and chest radiographs show the presence of regional or disseminated small nodular shadows and hyperlucency. Chest CT should help in detecting diffuse nodular shadows of bronchiolitis. Pathologic findings of diffuse...

Congenital lobar emphysema is a rare disease and a cause of respiratory distress in early infancy. The most common location of pulmonary involvement is the left upper lobe. We diagnosed a case of congenital lobar emphysema in a 5-month-old female infant, who had a complex heart disease using flexible bronchoscopy. In spite of palliative heart surgery, respiratory difficulty and cyanosis did not improve and...
A Case of Ornithine Transcarbamylase Deficiency Successfully Treated with Protein Restriction and Living Related Liver Transplantation
Bong Seong Kim, Kyung Mo Kim, Han-Wook Yoo, Sung Gyu Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(6):868-873.   Published online June 15, 1999
Ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency(OTCD), the most common inborn error of the urea cycle, is inherited in X-linked manner. In affected hemizygote males, OTCD manifests hyperammonemic coma that often leads to death during the newborn period. Our patient was at high risk for inborn error of urea cycle metabolism, since his two elder brothers died a few days after birth due to...
