Purpose : We evaluated the clinical manifestations, bronchoscopic findings and therapeutic effects of flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopy in atelectasis of children.
Methods : Sixty six children who received bronchoscopy due to persistent atelectasis, acute severe atelectasis and incidental atelectasis on plain chest radiography were studied retrospectively.
Results : The most common causative underlying disease was pneumonia(60.4%). Other underlying conditions were pulmonary tuberculosis, chronic... |

Purpose : The safety of MMR(Measles, Mumps, and Rubella) immunization to children with egg
allergies has been debated for decades because the live attenuated virus used in the vaccine is
grown in cultured chick-embryo fibroblasts. Many studies that investigated adverse reactions to
MMR vaccine have been reported abroad, but there has been no report in Korean children. So,
this study is aimed at determining... |

Purpose : Adenoviral respiratory infection can develop a life threatening condition similar to severe bacterial pneumonia. Despite adequate intensive care, this infection progresses to acute respiratory distress syndrome and causes permanent lung damage in some patients. In this study, we analyzed clinical features and long-term follow-up clinical data of this infection in children.
Methods : Forty-seven cases of inpatients were diagnosed... |

Purpose : Mantoux test was widely used to identify the tuberculosis. But no reliable method exists for distinguishing tuberculin reactions caused by previous BCG vaccination from those caused by mycobacterial infections. So we studied Mantoux response in infants who had received BCG vaccination in the first month of life.
Methods : Mantoux testing was carried out in 143 healthy infants... |

Purpose : Acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) is the final course of acute lung injury. It results from various etiological origins and pathophysiologic mechanisms, and has a mortality rate of approximately 60-70%. Although the confirmative incidence of ARDS in children is yet unknown, the increasing incidence of ARDS has been reported in Korea. In the present study, we report ARDS diagnosed... |

It has been well established that the gastroesophageal reflux and chronic respiratory problem were closely related. Several reports in pediatric literature have implicated the aspiration of gasrtric contents as a trigger factor of cough, wheezing, and recurrent pulmonary disease.
Several possible mechanisms have been proposed whereby acidic gastric content can trigger bronchospasm and, in turn, bronchospams can trigger gastroesopohageal reflux.
Several tests,... |

The immunotherapy has become a useful and effective method to treat allergic respiratory
diseases. It is a logical assumption that immunotherapy produces symptom relief as a result of
immunologically specific response.
This study was performed to delineate the IgE, IgG and IgG4 responses to immunotherapy, and
their relationships.
We selected the six asthmatic children on immunotherapy with Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus
(Dp). A set of samples from each... |

Normal IgG is now divided into four subclasses; IgGl, IgG2, IgG3 and IgG4. Each subclass has its
unique characteristics. The different subclass compositions of antibodies are raised in humans against
different immunogenic materials such as vaccinations or microoraganisms. All the IgG subclasses are
reported to be transferable from mother to fetus through the placenta, but there have been some
controversies in case of IgG2.
