Popis: This paper describes a case of late neonatal convulsions due to intracranial haemorrhage in a newborn with cholestatic hepatopathy due to PiZZ homozygote alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency. The deficiency of vitamin K dependent clotting factors, responsible for the haemorrhage, seems to be due to the cholestasis and might have been aggravated by the non-administration of vitamin K at birth and by breast feeding. The response to vitamin K therapy was good.
