Hyun-Jung Kim, Eun-Jung Bae, Jung-Il Noh, Jung-Yun Choi, Yong-Su Yun, Wong-Hwan Kim, Jung-Yeul Lee, Yong-Jin Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2007;50(1):40-46.   Published online January 15, 2007
Purpose : This study assessed the long term survival rate and long term complications of patients who had a modified Fontan operation for functionally univentricular cardiac anomaly. Methods : Between June 1986 and December 2000, 302 patients with a functional single ventricle underwent surgical interventions and were followed up until February 2006. The mean follow-up period was 8.3?.3 years (range 3.5-18...

Nonpharmacological treatment of arrhythmia
Eun-Jung Bae
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2006;49(9):930-936.   Published online September 15, 2006
Although antiarrhythmic medication has been the main treatment modality for arrhythmia in children, in recent decades technological development and computerization have made great advances in nonpharmacological therapy. This article reviews the transcatheter radiofrequency ablation for tachycardia in children, recent advances of device therapy for bradycardia, antitachycardia pacing, implantable cardioverter defibrillator. As a new field of device therapy, cardiac resynchronization therapy...

The Preventive Effect of Dexrazoxane and Pentoxifylline on Adriamycin Induced Cardiomyopathy
Ling Zhu, Eun-Jung Bae, Il-Soo Ha, Jung-Wook Seo, Chung-Il Noh, Jung-Yun Choi, Yong-Soo Yun
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2005;48(12):1378-1384.   Published online December 15, 2005
Purpose : We hypothesized dexrazoxane(DXR) and pentoxifylline(PTX) may prevent myocardial damage in adriamycin(ADR)-induced cardiomyopathic rat model. We also investigated their effects on the myocardial apoptosis and fibrosis in ADR induced cardiomyopathy. Methods : The six-week old female Spregue-Dawley rats were divided into control group(CNT, n= 4), ADR group(n=6), ADR＋DXR group(DXR, n=5), ADR＋PTX group(PTX, n=6), ADR＋DXR＋PTX group(DXPT, n=5). ADR(5 mg/week, twice) was...
Evaluation of Prognostic Factors in Corrected Transposition of the Great Arteries at Mid-term Follow-up
Young-Hwan Song, Hyok-Joo Kwon, Gi-Beom Kim, Soo-Jung Kang, Eun-Jung Bae, Chung-Il Noh, Yong-Soo Yun, Jeong-Ryul Lee, Yong-Jin Kim, Joon-Ryang Rho
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2003;46(2):154-161.   Published online February 15, 2003
Purpose : The prognosis of patients with corrected transposition of the great arteries(C-TGA) is variably affected by associated intracardiac defects, systemic right ventricular function, tricuspid valve competence, and conduction disturbances. This study aims to evaluate the importance of those factors at mid-term follow-up. Methods : Medical records of 94 patients(males 58, females 36; mean age at last follow-up, 12? years; mean...

Treatment of a Coronary Arterial Stenosis in a Child with Kawasaki Disease by Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty : Case Report and Literature Review
Man-Tak Oh, Eun-Jung Bae, Do-Jun Cho, In-Seung Park, Seong-Ho Kim, Heung-Gon Hwang
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1999;42(6):883-888.   Published online June 15, 1999
Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty(PTCA) is rarely performed on patients with coronary arterial stenosis that resulted from Kawasaki disease. We experienced a 3 year 10-month- old male with a history of Kawasaki disease who developed a few numbers of fusiform aneurysm on the right and left coronary artery. We examined and followed up the patient for 21 months using eletrocardiography,...
