Onychomycosis caused by the genus aspergillus is extremely rare in Korea and only one case due to A. sydowi has been reported. We experienced two casea of onychomycosis infected with A. repens, which were healthy adults. The first case was a 29 year-old male who developed thickening and dark discoloratian of 1st, and, 3rd and 5th toe-nails of left foot from about 5 months on. The second case was a 27 year-old male who developed thickening and yellow-whitish discoloration of the nail of right thumb from about 3 rnonths on. In both cases, direct examination of the affected nails showed many thick bluish hyphae and spore chains, and A. repens was isolated. Our cases were first reported through the Korean literature.

Intestinal malrotation is a constellation of a wide spectrum of embryologic failures of rotation and fixation of the gut, resulting in a narrow-based attachment of the mesentery and the presence of abnormal peritoneal (Ladd's) band. These abnormalities predispose to midgut volvulus, intestinal obstruction and internal herniation. We experienced a case of intestinal malrotation complicated by midgut volvulus in a 4-year-old girl who presente with abdominal pain, abdominal distension and melena. The diagnosis was made by abdominal CT scan, which showed "whirl sign." The diagnosis was confirmed by surgery. A brief review of literature ensues.

Idiopathic long QT syndrome(LQTS) is an important cause of syncope, seizures, serious ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death in children. The abnormalities of AV conduction such as 2:1 AV block in children with LQTS is rarely reported. We reported two cases of 2:1 atrioventricualr block in infants with LQTS. Patient 1, a female newborn, revealed bradycardia(60 beats/min) and QTc of 0.65sec with 2:1 AV block at birth. She died of polymorphic ventricular tachycardia at 26days of age. Patient 2, a 2-month-old female, exhibited prolonged QT interval (QTc=0.54sec), 2:1 AV block, and intermittent Wenckebach conduction. After she received propranolol, sinus rhythm with 1:1 AV conduction and QTc of 0.5sec was seen. After a follow-up of 6 months, the infant is still doing well.
