AbstractDiscussion about vitamin K prophylaxis has again become a matter of major concern since cases of life threatening bleeding due to late onset vitamin K deficiency have been observed in Germany. This review tries to summarize present knowledge about the clinical presentation, pathogenesis and the potential prevention of vitamin K deficiency caused bleeding in the neonatal period and infancy.
