Abstract |
A clinical study was done on 2 cases under the diagnosis of late hemorrhagic disease of infancy due
to Vitamin K dependent factor deficiency. The following results were obtained. The disorder occured
most frequently during early infancy (40 days of age & 2 months of age) with male predominance (2
cases all are male). G-I tract, skin, CNS were the most common site of bleeding. Anemia, probably
due to blood loss, was seen in all. Initial laboratory findings showed prolonged PT & PTT with
normal platelets count in all cases. After Vitamin K therapy, PT & PTT became normal. Promptly
response to Vitamin Kj therapy within 24 hrs was noted. And they were complete recovery from first
pisode within 2 weeks after admition without reccurence. |
