  • An eight-year-old, spayed female Shih-tzu, weighing 3.2 kg with a history of chronic intermittent vomiting and unknown pain for four months was referred. In ultrasonography, a small round hypoechoic mass was identified in the gastric wall. Gastric endoscopy showed a solitary raised mass with smooth surface in the pyloric antrum. Surgical resection was performed. Histopathologic findings with immunohistochemical studies showed extramedullary plasmacytoma in the gastric submucosal and muscle wall layer. The patient recovered normally without any complications. The tumor has not been re-occurred after surgical removal, to date.

  • Necrotizing lymphadenitis, or Kikuchi's disease, a newly recognized disease of unknown origin, occurred usually in young woman and mostly resolved spontaneously without treatment within a few months. Clinically, characteristic symptoms and sings were local lymph node enlargement, sometimes accompanied by tenderness, fever, weightless, leukopenia, and elevated erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and so necrotizing lymphadenitis can be confused with malignant lymphoma and tuberculosis. The histologic features of necrotizing lymphadenitis are distinctive. : lymph node biopsy reveals areas with frank cellular necrosis, karyorrhexis, and absence of plasma cell. We present nineteen cases of necrotizing lymphadenitis during from March 1990 to January 1993 and discuss their exact diagnosis and proper treatment.

  • Purpose : $Henoch-Sch\"{o}nlein$ purpura(HSP) is usually a self-limited disease with a good eventual outcome. The prognosis of HSP is mainly determined by the renal involvement. In this study, We evaluated children with biopsy-proven $Henoch-Sch\"{o}nlein$ purpura nephritis about the clinical outcome correlated with renal manifestation and morphologic findings. Methods : The clinical features, initial laboratory and pathologic findings, and clinical out-come were evaluated in 60 children with biopsy-proven $Henoch-Sch\"{o}nlein$ purpura nephritis at Yonsei University Severance Hospital during the period from Jan. 1990 to Dec. 2002. Results : The ratio of male to female patients was 1.2:1. The interval between the onset of $Henoch-Sch\"{o}nlein$ purpura and renal manifestation was less than 3 months in 81% of the patients. Initial renal manifestation was microscopic hematuria in 100% of patients, isolated hematuria in 15%, acute nephritic syndrome in 7%, nephrotic syndrome In 22% of patients. Renal manifestation correlated with clinical outcome. Grade II and III were the most common in histologic grades of ISKDC. Renal pathologic finding correlated with clinical outcome. Conclusion : Renal manifestation and pathologic findings correlated with the clinical out-come. It is necessary to evaluate the correlation between pathologic findings and treatment.

  • Objectives : The early onset of mood symptoms in bipolar disorder has been associated with poor outcomes in many studies. However, aspects of the clinical course of bipolar disorder in children and adolescents are controversial. The goal of this article is to review the clinical characteristics and longitudinal course of children and adolescents with bipolar disorders. Methods : Searches were conducted in MedLine, PsycINFO, KISS, and RISS using the terms phenomenology, clinical course, outcome, BPD, pediatric, children and adolescents. Twenty-one reports were selected : either original articles reporting symptoms and clinical characteristics of subjects (ages 5-18 years), or published articles in reviewed journals about bipolar disorder in children and adolescents. Results : Approximately 70% of subjects with bipolar disorder recovered from their index episode, and 50% had at least 1 syndromal recurrence, particularly depressive episodes. For 60% of the follow-up time, subjects had syndromal or subsyndromal symptoms with numerous changes in symptoms and shifts of polarity. Approximately 20% of BP-II subjects converted BP-I. Conclusion : Bipolar disorders in children and adolescents are characterized by episodic illness with subsyndromal and syndromal episodes with mainly depressive and mixed symptoms and rapid mood changes. Extensive follow-up time is needed to evaluate the continuity of bipolar disorder symptoms from childhood to adulthood.

  • Purpose : The mucopolysaccharidoses (MPSs) are a heterogeneous group of lysosomal storage disorders. They are caused by a deficiency of the enzymes involved in the degradation of glycosaminoglycans. Early recognition is important because recombinant enzyme replacement therapy is now available for MPS. We studied the clinical characteristics of 80 MPS children with the object of determining the epidemiological, clinical and radiological features in Korean MPS children. Methods : Diagnosis of MPS was confirmed by skin fibroblast enzyme analysis in 80 patients between February 1995 and December 2004. Charts were retrospectively reviewed for clinical and radiological findings, as well as for intelligence and speech evaluations. Results : Hunter syndrome (MPS type II) was the most prevalent type, appearing in 51/80 cases (64 %), followed by Sanfilippo syndrome (MPS III-18%), Hurler syndrome (MPS I-15%), and Morquio syndrome (MPS IV-4%). The average age at diagnosis was 5.5 years (range 1 to 20), and the male-to-female ratio was 4.7 : 1. Typical radiographic changes were observed in 45/54 cases (83%). Mitral regurgitation was the most common cardiac defect. Moderate to profound mental retardation and hearing loss were present in 14/35 cases (56%) and 33/38 cases (82%), respectively. Four MPS II patients had bone marrow transplantation, with mixed outcomes. Five MPS I patients are currently on enzyme replacement therapy. Conclusion : Our study showed a high proportion of MPS II cases (64%), which may represent population variability. By studying the clinical features of these patients, we hope to alert pediatricians of the warning signs of MPS.

  • Purpose : We evaluated children with Henoch-$Sch{\ddot{o}}nlein$ purpura(HSP) in terms of epidemiology and clinical characteristics. Methods : A total of 424 medical records of children with HSP admitted to The Catholic University of Korea, Daejeon St. Mary's Hospital, from 1987 to 2003 were retrospectively analyzed. Results : The mean annual number of cases was $25.1{\pm}7.9$ and no one year showed an outbreak. There was a steady number of patients throughout the year with a decrease during the summer season. The male-to-female ratio was 1.3 : 1 with the median age of the patients being 6-years-old. The age distribution showed a peak at age 6 in a bell-shaped distribution curve. Purpura was noted in 100 percent of the patients, gastrointestinal involvement in 53.8 percent, joint involvement in 40.8 percent, and renal involvement in 18.9 percent. Nephrotic syndrome occurred in 1 percent of all patients. Conclusion : The epidemiologic and clinical features of HSP were similar to those of other regions in Korea and foreign nations, irrespective of time.
