Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Variegate porphyria is a rare, hereditary form of hepatic porphyria characterized by acute systemic symptoms as in acute intermittent porphyria in addition to cutaneous symptoms simulating porphyria cutanea tarda. We describe a 22-year-old female from India who first presented to the emergency department with acute symptoms and was later confirmed to have variegate porphyria. |
