Reversible posterior leukonecephalopathy syndrome RPLS), a neurologie disorder associated with evidence of posterior cerebral edema on neuroimaging studies, has been described in both adults and children. Conditions predisposing to RPLS include malignant hypertension, renal dysfunction, toxemia of pregnancy, interferon therapy, and the use of immunosuppressive agents. When associated with acute hypertension, RPLS typically occurs concurrently with the fulminant clinical syndrome of hypertensive encephalopathy We describe occipital lobe seizures, in the setting of only moderate elevations of blood pressure, as the major clinical manifestation of RPLS.

Benign chondroblastoma of bone is a relatively rare primary bone tumor which develops in the 2nd to 3rd decade involving the epiphysis of the long bone. The over-all reported cases of the world have been lesser than 400 after determining the entity as benign chondroblastoma in 1942 by Jaffe and Lichtenstein. A case of the benign chondroblastoma with involvement of the greater trochanter of the femur of a 19 years old boy is presented. The conclusive diagaosis was led by histological examination. Considerable new bone formation and bony spicules which might be derived from previous multiple puncture made us to confuse with osteogenic sarcoma. The specimen was composed of reddish brown hemorrhagic and fragile tissue with scattered either yellowish gritty calcified material or bluish translucent ones. The postoperative course has been smooth and there has been no evidence of recurrence for postoperative 15 months.

PURPOSE:Factors influencing postnatal growth are innumerable. It is known that genetic factors such as parental height and environmental factors such as nutrition, economic status and hormonal effects are important factors. The purpose of this study was to examine the factors affecting final adult height in normal children. METHODS:753 high school students (513 boys, 240 girls) who live in Seoul were studied. Height and body weight were measured and questionaires about sexual development were examined. We included the subjects who reached fianl adult height. The criteria of final adult height was as following: ages over 17 years in the boys and over 15 years in the girls and growth velocity was less than 1 cm per year. They had no systemic diseases and height standard deviation scores were more than -2.5. RESULTS: 1)Final adult heights were 173.1+/-.1cm in boys and 160.9+/-.7cm in girls. 2)Final adult height significantly correlated with father height(r=0.13, p<0.01), mother height(r=0.25, p<0.01), midparental height(r=0.25 p<0.01) and birth weight (r=0.16, p<0.01). 3)In short final adult height groups, birth weight and midparental height were significantly lower(p<0.05), but puberty onset age, body mass index and economic status were similar to normal stature groups. 4)Final adult height significantly correlated with target height.(r=0.43, p<0.01). In boys, the final adult height was 1.7cm taller than target height on the average. In girls, final adult height was 1.6cm taller than target height on the average. 5)In the group in which final adult height is less than target height, birth weights were significantly lower than those of the groups in which final height is greater than target height. CONCLUSIONS:Among factors affecting final adult height, parent height and birth weight were important. To predict final adult height, target height can be used simply and target height showed significant correlation with final adult height. In the case of showing differences between final adult height and target height, many factors including birth weight will influence the outcome.

We report a case of pigmented spindle cell nevus occurred in a 4-year-old girl. The lesion was well-demarcated, 2.5 x 3mm sized black macule on the left thenar area. The histopathologic findings of excisional biopsy specimen revealed the prociferation of uniform spindle-shaped pigmented melanocytes at the dermoepidermal junction and sharply definded lateral margins.

10.Pelvic Arteriovenous Malformation: A Case Report.

Journal of the Korean Radiological Society 1995;33(6):865-868
Arteriovenous mafformation(AVM) of female pelvic organ is a rare disease of unknown cause. The authors' report a case of pelvic AVM which was incidentally found during US examination of the patient with choriocarcinoma after chemotherapy. The real-time sonography revealed several cystic lesions around the uterus with adjacent dilated tortuous vessels. The color Doppler sonography depicted abundant blood flow mixed with red and blue colors within the cystic lesions and rapid turbulent systolic and diastolic flows. CT showed well-enhancing round vascular lesions with elongated vessels in the pelvis, and MRI depicted signal-void cystic lesions on both T1 and T2 weighted images with small portions of high intensity within the lesions on T2 weighted image. The angiography revealed pelvic AVM fed by tortuous uterine and vaginal arteries with a dilated draining vein
