Twenty-nine patients with neonatal jaundice were evaluated with $^{99m}Tc-HIDA$ cholescin-tigraphy to elucidate its clinical applicability. Scintigraphic results were interpreted by the degree of early hepatic uptake and the presence or absence of radioactivity in the G-I tract. The results are as follows; I) In 18 patents with neonatal hepatitis; 8 of 11 patients with decreased hepatic uptake and all 5 patients with good hepatic uptake showed G-I radioactivity. But, the 2 remainders with poor hepatic extraction were not available for evaluation of neonatal jaundice due to patient's poor hepatic function. 2) In 9 patients, confirmed as biliary obstruction; all showed no G-I radioactivity but 3 of the 9 showed poor hepatic extraction on scan and they were not available for evaluation. 3) All the 2 patients with postoperative cholangitis showed G-I radioactivity on $^{99m}Tc-HIDA$ scan. 4) Relationship between histopathologic findings and $^{99m}Tc-HIDA$ scan; Among 5 patients with biliary cirrhosis 3 showed poor hepatic extraction, the remainders showed decreased and good hepatic uptake respectively. But, the 2 portal fibrosis without cirrhosis and 4 cholestasis showed decreased (4) or good hepatic uptake (2).

When jaundice persists for more than 14 days postnatally, the early diagnosis of surgical jaundice is important for the prognosis in extrahepatic biliary atresia after draining procedure. The role of diagnostic laparoscopy to differenctiate medical causes of jaundice from biliary atresia is evaluated in this report. Four patients with prolonged jaundice have been included in this study. When the gallbladder was not visualized we proceeded to laparotomy. In patients with enlarged gallbladder visualized at laparoscopy, laparoscopic guided cholangiogram was performed, and laparoscopic liver biopsy was done for those who had a patent biliary tree. Two patients had small atretic gallbladder and underwent a Kasai hepato-portoenterostomy. One patients showed a patent gallbladder and common bile duct with atresia of the common hepatic and intrahepatic ducts, and they underwent a Kasai hepatic-portoenterostomy. One patient showed an enlarged gallbladder and laparoscopic-guided cholangiogram were normal. Laparoscopic liver biopsy was performed. There were no complications. Laparoscopy with laparoscopic-guided cholangiogram may be a valuable method in accurate and earlier diagnosis in an infant with prolonged jaundice.

본 연구는 심한 발현 양상을 보인 NICCD 환자의 임상상과 그들의 분자 유전학적 결과를 고찰하여, NICCD의 빠른 진단 및 치료를 통해 임상 경과의 호전을 관찰하였기에 이를 보고하는 바이다. 신생아 광범위 대사 이상 질환 스크리닝 검사의 보편화와 더불어 NICCD 환자들의 진단 수는 앞으로 지속적으로 증가할 것으로 보이며, 이들의 장기적인 경과 관찰을 통한 예후 인자 및 새로운 치료적 접근법을 도출해내야 할 것이다.

A 4-week-old infant presented with a coagulation disorder resulting from a vitamin K deficiency. The vitamin K deficiency was caused by neonatal cholestasis due to biliary atresia. Jaundice, hepatomegaly and pale stools are the predominant presenting symptoms of biliary atresia, none of which were recognized in our patient before admission. However, the patient presented with bleeding caused by vitamin K deficiency. She was fully breastfed and had received adequate doses of vitamin K at birth and from the age of 1 week. In case of a hemorrhagic diathesis due to neonatal cholestasis, timely identification of treatable underlying disorders, in particular biliary atresia, is important because an early surgical intervention results in a better prognosis. Meticulous history taking and a thorough physical exam can be decisive for an early diagnosis and subsequent intervention.

Purpose: This study aimed to determine the influence of a breastfeeding coaching program (BCP) for mothers of late preterm infants (LPIs) on the breastfeeding rate and neonatal morbidity within 1 month after discharge. Methods: This was a non-randomized quasi-experimental study with a time series design. The participants were 40 LPIs and their mothers who were hospitalized in a neonatal intensive care unit at a university hospital. Nineteen LPIs were assigned to the control group, and 21 to the experimental group. The mothers of the LPIs in the experimental group received the BCP once on the discharge day and then once a week for 1 month. Neonatal morbidity was defined as an outpatient department or emergency room visit due to an LPI's health problem. Results: The breastfeeding rate in the experimental group was significantly higher than in the control group at the fourth week after discharge (χ²=7.17, p=.028). Five and two LPIs in the control group and the experimental group, respectively, visited a hospital due to neonatal jaundice. Neonatal morbidity was not significantly different between the two groups (χ²=1.95, p=.164). Conclusion: The BCP was useful for improving the breastfeeding rates of LPIs and may have potential to reduce neonatal morbidity.

목 적 : 황색포도알균의 보균율은 신생아에서 가장 높다고 알려져 있고, 황색포도알균의 보균은 곧 그 균주에 의한 감염증으로 이어질 위험이 높아진다. 본 연구에서는 신생아황달로 입원한 환아에서의 황색포도알균과 MRSA의 보균율을 조사하였고, 신생아황달의 대부분이 모유황달이나 생리적황달임을 감안하여 이를 통해 간접적으로 건강한 신생아의 황색포도알균 및 MRSA 보균율을 추정하고자 하였다. 방 법: 2006년 1월부터 2010년 12월까지 성애병원과 광명성애병원 신생아집중치료실에 황달로 입원한 환아 545명을 대상으로 하였다. 입원 첫날 멸균된 면봉으로 비강과 서혜부를 도찰하여 얻은 검체를 세균배양을 통해 황색포도알균을 동정하고 다시 항생제감수성 검사를 통해 메티실린내성 여부를 판정한 결과를 후향적으로 조사하였다. 결 과:총 545명의 환아가 본 연구에 포함되었고, 이중 318명의 비강과 서혜부에서 황색포도알균이 분리되어 보균율은 58.3%였고 214명의 환아에서는 MRSA가 분리되어 MRSA 보균율은39.3%였다. 또한 분리된 MRSA를 항생제 감수성 결과를 토대로 분석하였을 때, CA-MRSA로 추정되는 균주는 65.7% (142/216), HA-MRSA로 추정되는 균주는 34.3% (74/216)였다. 결 론: 39.3%의 MRSA 보균율로 미루어볼 때, 외부에서 전원되는 신생아를 대상으로 한 MRSA 감시배양검사는 필요하다고 생각된다. 또한, MRSA 균주 중 CA-MRSA 가능성 균주가 65.7%로 높게 나와 이미 지역내산부인과 및 분만실 등에 CA-MRSA 균주가 정착해 있을 가능성이 높다고 생각되며 이에 대한 지속적이고도 정기적인 MRSA 감시배양검사도 필요할 것으로 생각된다.

Cholestasis results from impairment in the excretion of bile, which may be due to mechanical obstruction of bile flow or impairment of excretion of bile components into the bile canaliculus. When present, cholestasis warrants prompt diagnosis and treatment. The differential diagnosis of cholestasis beyond the neonatal period is broad and includes congenital and acquired etiologies. It is imperative that the clinician differentiates between intrahepatic and extrahepatic origin of cholestasis. Treatment may be supportive or curative and depends on the etiology. Recent literature shows that optimal nutritional and medical support also plays an integral role in the management of pediatric patients with chronic cholestasis. This review will provide a broad overview of the pathophysiology, diagnostic approach, and management of cholestasis beyond the neonatal and infancy periods.

고빌리루빈혈증은 신생아기에 가장 흔히 볼 수 있는 질환으로 전세계적으로 생후 일주일내 신생아 중 약 80%에서 관찰된다. 고빌리루빈혈증을 치료하지 않을 경우 핵황달 및 사망에 이르게 되므로 신속하고 정확하게 진단하는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 상용 스마트폰을 사용하여 휴대가 편리하고 전처리 과정없이 사용이 간편한 총빌리루빈 측정시스템을 개발하였다. 본 시스템은 추가의 장치가 필요없이 스마트폰의 LED와 카메라를 이용하여 측정하며 전처리 없이 소량의 혈액을 주입하면 되므로 현장에서 누구나 쉽게 측정이 가능하다. Cobas c111의 측정값과 비교한 결과 3 mg/dL 이하 ±0.4 mg/dL 이내 94%(17/18), 3 mg/dL 이상 ±20% 이내 98%(276/282)로 CLIA 가이드라인의 정확도 기준을 만족함을 확인하였다. 이는 의료 시설 및 훈련된 인력 부족한 현장에서 신속하게 영유아의 황달 상태를 확인하는 방법으로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 보여진다.
