A patient with hepatoerythropoietic porphyria had typical cutaneous manifestations: photosensitivity with blistering and mild scarring, and hypertrichosis. Biochemically elevated levels of protoporphyrins in erythrocytes, uroporphyrins in urine, and coproporphyrins in feces are markers of this form of porphyria. A family study confirmed that he was homozygous for a defect of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase. A trial with hydroxychloroquine produced no improvement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
