CASE DESCRIPTION: A 2 months old girl presented with a fatal intracranial hemorrhage. A day before she developed a hematoma on her foot and orbit. Despite daily oral vitamin K, blood results revealed a severe vitamin K deficiency-related bleeding. Postmortem liver biopsy and genetic studies showed cholestasis as the most likely cause of malabsorption of fat soluble vitamins due to a heterozygous pathogenic variant in the ABCB11 gene, which could possibly be transient. CONCLUSION: Our case illustrates the importance of revising the national guideline for vitamin K prophylaxis to intramuscular administration, according to the recommendation of the Dutch Health Council.",
