  • Title: Haemorrhagic diathesis in children associated with vitamin K deficiency.
    Author: Taj-Eldin S, al-Nouri L, Fakri O.
    Journal: J Clin Pathol; 1967 May; 20(3):252-6. PubMed ID: 5602558.
    Abstract:
    A haemorrhagic diathesis is described in infants; this is preceded and accompanied by constitutional symptoms such as fever, diarrhoea, vomiting, anorexia, and pallor. These children had a severe coagulation abnormality, due to deficiency of vitamin-K-dependent coagulation factors, and it was corrected by administration of vitamin K. No conclusion could be drawn as to the aetiology of this condition but some possible causes are discussed.
