Abstract EN

Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) type 2 results from a mutation in the bile salt exporter pump, impeding bile acid transport.

Patients usually present with jaundice, pruritus, growth failure, and fat soluble vitamin deficiencies.

We present two patients diagnosed with PFIC type 2 due to severe coagulopathy and bleeding without jaundice.
