There were hypopigmented macules on the body, periventricular calcifications, renal cyst and cardiac rabdomyomas just below the aortic valve. The patient required resection of left ventricular subaortic masses due to sustained... |

Purpose : Rett syndrome(RTT) is an X-linked dominant neurodevelopmental disorder affecting 1
per 10,000-15,000 female births worldwide. It was initially described by Andreas Rett in 1966.
RTT involves developmental regression characterized stereotypic hand movements, tremors, gait
apraxia, seizures, deceleration of head growth after the age of 6-18 months. The disease-causing
gene was identified as MECP2 on chromosome Xq28. We carried out mutational analysis of
MECP2... |

Purpose : It is well known that use of intranenous methylprednisolone(IVMP)for the patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(ITP) is not only as effective as use of intravenous gammaglobulin to mincrease platelets quickly, but also the former is less expensive than the latter. As the adequate dosage of IVMP has not been fully elucidated, we have tried to determine it.

5-year-old girl were presented. The causes were thyroid agenesis of case I, defective TSH receptor
(suspect) of case II and undetermined in case III respectively.
The diagnosis was made by clinical manifestations, thyroid function test, A brief review of
literatures was made.
