Late Vitamin K Deficiency Bleeding Presenting as Subacute Subdural Hemorrhage in an Exclusively Breastfed Infant: A Preventable Life‐Threatening Condition—A Case Report

Abstract

Late vitamin K deficiency bleeding should be considered in exclusively breastfed infants presenting with seizures, pallor, or unexplained bleeding, particularly when vitamin K prophylaxis was not administered at birth. Early diagnosis and prompt vitamin K administration can rapidly correct coagulopathy and prevent life-threatening intracranial hemorrhage.
