Change of Auditory Brainstem Response(ABR) on Neonatal Asphyxia.
Jeong Sam Jeon, Chong Woo Bae, Sa Jun Chung, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1989;32(10):1391-1396.   Published online October 31, 1989
Neonatal asphyxia is insult to the newborn due to lack of oxygen or perfusion to various organs. It is associated with tissue hypoxia, especially brain. So hypoxic-ischemic brain injury is the most important complication known as hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. The EEG as well as various evoked potentials (auditory, visual and somatosensory) may assist in evaluating the severity of the damage. This study was undertaken to...

Eun Kyoung Sohn, Chong Woo Bae, Sa Jun Chung, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1989;32(9):1295-1299.   Published online September 30, 1989
More recently, several studies have been repotted about the abnormalities of auditory brainstem response (ABR) in hyperbilirubinemia of newborn. By using of ABR, visual evoked potenital and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques, some investigators suggested that transient alteration in ABR in severely jaundiced neonates indicated reversible transient subclinical or clinical bilirubin induced neurotoxicity. They thought it would be the early stage of kernicterus. We experienced two...

Kee Sung Yang, Soo Tack Bae, Hong Bae Kim, Ji Sub Oh
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1989;32(3):430-437.   Published online March 31, 1989
We experienced a case of Adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD), which is a genetically determined metabolic disorder associated with progressive demyelination of brain white matter and adrenal insuficiency. An 11 year old male revealed rapidly evolving neuologic progression, decreased adrenal reserve, increased plasma content of very long chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) and typical radiological findings. We report here the clinical findings of this patient with brief review of...

Eun Kyung Choi, Myung Ho Kwon, Mea Young Chung, Dong Hyuck Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1988;31(1):58-63.   Published online January 31, 1988
Brain CT (Computerized Transaxial Tomography) is a noninvasive, safe and painless diagnostic approach to neurologic disorders in children. Brain CT is valuable in diagnosing intracranial pathology by demonstration of location, extent and nature of a lesion, and is also used to follow up after treatment. We have analysed 75 children with chief complaints of neurological symptoms examined at Department of Pediatrics, Koryo General Hospital, Seoul...

Jeong Sik Min, Yeong Ho Ra, Chong Woo Bae, Sa Jun Chung, Chang Il Ahn
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1987;30(12):1387-1400.   Published online December 31, 1987
Auditory Brainstem Response(ABR) has been found to be useful for evaluating objective assessment of hearing thresholds, maturation of the brainstem and neurological disorders in the brainstem. Therefore it is essential to define normal ranges and accurate changes in the wave form of the ABR in children. This study was undertaken with the analysis of 243 ABR in children with normal otological, developmental, neurological...

Eun Yong Lee, Pyung Hwa Chee, Sei Joo Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1987;30(8):846-851.   Published online August 31, 1987
An association between neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and hearing loss has been found in several studies. Because auditory brainstem evoked responses (ABR) may be useful tool for the monitoring of early bilirubin txicity in hyperbilirubinemic neonates, ABR in 16 fullterm neonates with serum total bilirubin values 15 mg/dl were compared with the responses in 17 control neonates. The results were as follows: 1) The statistically significant absence of...

Recently, we experienced two cases of tuberous sclerosis, in 4-year-4-month-old female and 17-month-old male patient. The diagnoses were established by typical clinical manifestations and brain CAT. Especially, in latter case, calcific density was successfully detected by brain CAT, while plain radiographs of the skull revealed still no evidence of calcification. A brief review of related literatures was made.
