A Case of Satoyoshi Syndrome Presented with Progressive Muscular Spasm and Alopecia
Kyung Ran Son, Jin Hwa Kook, Byung Ju Kim, Sung Jin Kim, Jae Sook Ma
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(9):1165-1169.   Published online September 15, 2002
Satoyoshi syndrome(generalized Komuragaeri disease) is a rare disorder of unknown cause, characterized by progressive, painful, intermittent muscle spasms and alopecia. Endocrinopathy with amenorrhea, secondary skeletal abnormalities, and diarrhea or unusual malabsorption are frequently seen. It seems that autoimmunity may play a role in its pathogenesis. We report a 13-year-old girl with characteristic manifestations of the syndrome. She was treated with...
Three Cases of Internal Jugular Phlebectasia
Ic Sun Choi, Kyung Ran Son, Byung Ju Kim, Jae Sook Ma
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2002;45(8):1043-1047.   Published online August 15, 2002
Phlebectasia is an abnormal dilatation of an isolated vein and a rare venous anomaly and is usually asymptomatic. Clinically internal jugular phlebectasia is a self limited benign condition and usually no treatment is required after initial diagnosis. So suspection of this disease and appropriate diagnostic approaches are essential to avoid unnecessary surgical intervention. We present three cases of internal jugular...
Two Cases of Left Ventricular Tumors Complicating Subaortic Stenosis in Newborn Infants
Ji Seon Kang, Mi Jung Hwang, Tae Hyoung Cho, Byung Ju Kim, Young Jong Woo, Jae Sook Ma
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2000;43(8):1122-1126.   Published online August 15, 2000
The most common obstruction of left ventricular outflow in childhood is produced either by a fibrous ring below the aortic valve, or by localized or diffuse muscular hypertrophy of the interventricular septum. Cardiac tumors causing subaortic stenosis in the newborn infant are extremely rare. This report describes two cases of subaortic stenosis caused by a tumor of the left ventricle...
A Case of Bronchial Mucoepidermoid Carcinoma in Child
In Jeong Kim, Jin Soo Hwang, In Seok Kim, Byung Ju Kim, Jae Sook Ma
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(4):580-583.   Published online April 15, 1999
Bronchial mucoepidermoid carcinoma is very rarely encountered in children. We report a case of bronchial mucoepidermoid carcinoma in a 10-year-old boy who presented with persistent cough and atelectasis. Bronchoscopic examination showed a tumor mass occluding the right bronchus intermedius, and the mass was removed by bronchoscopy. The results of the pathological examination revealed low-grade mucoepidermoid carcinoma. He underwent right middle...

Byung Ju Kim, Jae Sook Ma
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(9):1243-1249.   Published online September 15, 1998
Purpose : This study was conducted to establish the prevalence and clinical features of WPW- type ventricular preexcitation syndrome in children. Methods : Eighteen patients were discovered by the mass heart disease screening using ECG on 47,691 elementary school children in Kwangju from September 1992 to December 1994(group 1), and 14 patients were diagnosed at the Department of Pediatrics, Chonnam...

Rhabdomyolysis-induced Acute Renal Failure in a Child
Weon Sang Yun, Keun Mo Ki, Byung Ju Kim, Jae Sook Ma
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1998;41(5):707-710.   Published online May 15, 1998
Rhabdomyolysis has been reported as a cause of acute renal failure(ARF), and it can arise from traumatic and variable non-traumatic events. Rhabdomyolysis-induced ARF is very rare in children. We experienced a case of rhabdomyolysis-induced ARF in a 14-year-old boy who presented with generalized edema and oliguria following trauma, a compressed thigh by a cultivator. Laboratory tests showed marked elevation of muscle...

Immunophenotypic Analysis of Umbilical Cord Blood Stem Cells
Won Ho Kang, Tai Ju Hwang, Hoon Kook, Byung Ju Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1997;40(11):1572-1581.   Published online November 15, 1997
Purpose : Since umbilical cord blood (UCB), which used to be discarded, was found to be a source of enriched hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, basic research to elucidate characteristics of UCB hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and its clinical application to bedside transplantation have been attempted. Moreover, stem cell transplantation (SCT) has expanded its role, not only in hematopoietic reconstitution, but in cancer therapy,...
