Journal ArticleDOI
Cortical hyperostosis following long-term administration of prostaglandin E1 in infants with cyanotic congenital heart disease
Ken Ueda,Akihiro Saito,Hiroyuki Nakano,Aoshima M,Michio Yokota,Ryusuke Muraoka,Tsutomu Iwaya +6 more
TL;DR: Two pat ients with cortical hyperost0sis which occurred following longterm adminis t ra t ion of PGE~ in low doses are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repeated quantitative angiograms in coronary arterial aneurysm in Kawasaki disease.
TL;DR: Following-up observations revealed that the course of coronary artery disease depended on the size and distribution of aneurysms at initial angiography, which may provide useful criteria for predicting the prognosis of patients with Kawasaki disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Subclinical changes in brain morphology following cardiac operations as reflected by computed tomographic scans of the brain
Ryusuke Muraoka,Michio Yokota,Aoshima M,Kyoku I,Shinichi Nomoto,Akira Kobayashi,Hiroyuki Nakano,Ken Ueda,Akihiro Saito,Hiroatsu Hojo +9 more
TL;DR: Six children with CT changes had no clinical manifestation of the brain damage, and their CT abnormalities recovered within 6 to 11 months after operation, but the specific cause of these changes remains undetermined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scoring method for identifying patients with Kawasaki disease at high risk of coronary artery aneurysms.
Hiroyuki Nakano,Ken Ueda,Akihiro Saito,Yukinori Tsuchitani,Jyuzou Kawamori,Takeshi Miyake,Takami Yoshida +6 more
TL;DR: The present scoring method provides simple but clinically useful criteria for predicting patients at high risk of coronary artery disease, and immunoglobulin therapy for selected patients may reduce the significant coronary artery complications of Kawasaki disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extrathoracically adjustable pulmonary artery banding.
Ryusuke Muraoka,Michio Yokota,Aoshima M,Shinichi Nomoto,Kyoku I,Akira Kobayashi,Hiroyuki Nakano,Ken Ueda,Akihiro Saito +8 more
TL;DR: A new technique of adjustable pulmonary artery banding is presented, used in eight consecutive infants with complex congenital cardiac anomalies, which avoids most mortality and morbidity related to an inappropriate banding and brings satisfactory symptomatic palliation.
