Kie-Young Park, Young-Hwue Kim, Ji-Yeon Min, Jae-Kon Ko, In-Sook Park, Chang-Yee Hong, Tae-Jin Yun, Dong-Man Seo
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(6):820-827.   Published online June 15, 2000
Critical valvular aortic stenosis(AS) is a life threatening congenital heart anomaly in neonates or infants. The main cause of death is rapidly progressing left ventricular failure. The treatment goal of critical AS is to save left ventricular function early. Before the 1980s, the preferred treatment was surgical valvotomy, however, that operative method had a high mortality rate and risk of...

Clinical and MRI Findings of Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis Associated with Preceding Infections Confirmed Serologically
Jung-Yeon Shim, Tae-Sung Ko, Hyung-Nam Moon, Chang-Yee Hong, Choong-Gon Choi,, Shi-Joon Yoo, Dae-Chul Suh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(4):505-513.   Published online April 15, 1998
Purpose : Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis(ADEM) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. The pathogenesis is not well known, but it is thought to be an immune-mediated disease and may follow a viral infection or vaccinations. MRI demonstrates decreased signal on T1 weighting and increased signal on T2-weighted image. We report clinical features and characteristic MRI findings in seven patients with ADEM...
Total Anomalous Pulmonary Venous Connection : The Results of 23 Consecutive Patients
Young-Hwue Kim, Jae-Kon Ko, In-Sook Park, Tae-Jin Yun, Dong-Man Seo, Chang-Yee Hong
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(3):346-353.   Published online March 15, 1998
Purpose : Surgical risk of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection(TAPVC) is high, especially in patients with early presentation resulting from pulmonary venous obstruction or with advanced pulmonary vascular obstructive disease(PVOD). We reviewed our experience of primary correction of TAPVC and examined the surgical outcome and risk factors. Methods : From June 1991 to Sept. 1996, 23 neonates or infants who were...
Neurologic Complications Associated with Mycoplasma pneumoniae Infection
Sung-Jong Park, Tae-Sung Ko, Hyung-Nam Moon, Chang-Yee Hong
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1996;39(3):346-353.   Published online March 15, 1996
Purpose : Mycoplasma pneumoniae is known to be a common respiratory pathogen in children and cause neurologic complications in some patients. The clinical spectrum of the neurologic complications is wide, ranging from mild meningeal signs to severe neurologic symptoms with poor outcomes. The overall mortality in patients with neurologic complications has been approximated upto 10% and significant residual deficits could...
Unusual Presentation of Kawasaki Disease Complicated by Coronary Aneurysms
Young-Ah Lee, In-Sook Park, Young-Hwue Kim, Hyung-Nam Moon, Chang-Yee Hong
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1994;37(7):890-899.   Published online July 15, 1994
Patients with atypical or incomplete Kawasaki disease are at same risk for development of coronary artery complications as typical Kawasaki disease. In this communication we report six patients with unusual presentation of Kawasaki disease complicated by coronary artery aneurysms, in whom correct diagnosis were not made in time for proper treatment. One of these patients died from massive myocardial ischemia...
Comparative Value of Cardiac MRI and Echocardiography in the Assessment of Congenital Heart Lesions
Young-Hwue Kim, #NAME? Park, Chang-Yee Hong, Shi-Joon Yoo, Tae-Hwan Lim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1993;36(10):1343-1350.   Published online October 15, 1993
To examine the usefulness of cardiac MRI in assessing patients (pt) with congenital heart diseases (CHD), informations obtained from MRI and echocardiogrphy (echo) were compared in 91 consecutive pt with CHD and was correlated with findings at cardiac catheterization(53pt) and at surgery (71pt). Pt were studied with 1.5Tesla MRI unit and multiplanar images of the heart and great vessels were...
