An unusual case of purpuric erythropoietic protoporphyria.

Clinical and experimental dermatology, 2000, Volume: 25, Issue:5

Erythropoietic protoporphyria (EPP) is the most common of the erythropoietic porphyrias. Recent advances in diagnostic laboratory tests have led to the discovery of a number of previously undiagnosed cases. We describe a case of EPP presenting late with a purpuric eruption and discuss the pathogenesis and significance of purpura in EPP.
