The porphyrias: Clinical and laboratory aspects
View through CrossRef
AbstractThe porphyrias, a group of diseases caused by enzyme deficiencies in the heme biosynthetic pathway, are reviewed. The clinical features and pathophysiology of each porphyria are discussed. Analytical techniques used in both screening and definitive investigations are reviewed. The final sections integrate the previous information to provide a protocol to assist in planning the investigation of any particular case of porphyria according to clinical presentation and in interpreting the results of laboratory investigations.
