Evaluation of Pulmonary Venous, Mitral and Aortic Flow Pattern by Doppler Echocardiography in Neonates
Hye Soon Kim, Young Mi Hong, Gyoung Hee Kim
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1994;37(5):596-605.   Published online May 15, 1994
Pulmonary vein velocities have recently been estimated in conjunction with mitral flow velocities to increase our understanding of ventricular filling. The advent of transesophageal echocardiography with pulsed doppler imaging capability has provided a method by which both the mitral valve and pulmonary vein velocities can be easily recorded because of the posterior approach providing unimpeded interrogation of cardiac structures. The purpose...

Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is common in the premature infants and occurs mainly in subependymal germinal matrix. In contrast, IVH in the term infants is rare and different in pathogenesis and bleeding sites from those of the premature infants. Most studies of IVH in term infants have been studied by computerized tomography and postmortem examination. Brain ultrasonography which has become a...

Thirty consecutive partient seen in a pediatric out patient and emergency department, in whom the diagnosis of intussusception was considered, had an ultrasound examination of the abdomen before the barium enema. The peak age was 5~12 month(range 4~34 month). Intussusception was detected by ultrasonography in all 25 cases proved by barium enema(sensitivity 100%). Normal findings on ultrasonography correlated with negative barium...

In Korean, there has been an increasing concern on rickettsiosis as a possile common cause of unkonwn febrile illness since Tsutsugamushi fever among koreans was reported first in1986. We experienced 10 cases of Tsutsugamushi fever ocurring in the Mokpo area during the period of 3 months(Oct. to Dec.) in 1990, which were diagnosed clinically and serologically by...
Occult Mediastinal Ganglioneuroblastoma Presenting with Myoclonic Encephalopathy as Paraneoplastic Syndrome
Hahng Lee, Dong Ki Han, Jae Won Oh, In Joon Seol, Eun Kyung Hong, Seok Chol Jeon
J Korean Pediatr Soc. 1994;37(5):695-700.   Published online May 15, 1994
Ganglioneruroblastoma and neuroblastoma are among commonest types of childhood malignancy and a number of unique paraneoplastic syndromes have been associated with both localized and disseminated neuroblastoma. The coincidence of neuroblastoma and myoclonic encephalopathy or other paraneoplastic syndromes occurs relatively rare, and therefore, failure to recognize this association could result in delays in both diagnosis and treatment, and the result...

After aseptic or septic meningitis, some neurologic complications such as convulsions, delirium, rigidity, cerebral infarctions and cerebral hemorrhage can be developed. The cerebral infarction after meningitis is caused by arterial or venous occlusions. Involvement of small perforating arteries leads to ganglionic infarcts while severe sapsm of major vessels may lead to massive infarctions in the distribution of middle and/or anterior...

The double-chambered right ventricle is congenital or acquired cardiac anomaly, which is characterized by aberrent hypertrophied muscular bands that divide the right ventriclar cavity into two different pressure chamber. This anomaly can complicate the natural history of patient with isolated ventricular septal defect. We experienced two cases of acquired DCRV, which confirmed by two separate cardiac catherterization and angiography. The purpose...
