Resumen
GONZALEZ, Verónica et al. A clinical case of hepato-erythropoietic porphyria associated with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Arch. Pediatr. Urug. [online]. 2021, vol.92, n.2, e307. Epub 01-Dic-2021. ISSN 0004-0584. https://doi.org/10.31134/ap.92.2.13.
Porphyria is a complex and heterogeneous group of heme synthesis disorder. Hepato-erythropoietic porphyria is a very rare subtype that onsets in childhood, and shows predominant skin involvement. We describe the clinical case of a 5-year-old patient who showed skin lesions and hypertrichosis and whose diagnosis was confirmed due to increased uroporphyrins in urine and UROD gene sequencing
