The investigation and follow-up of three cases of EPP led us to reevaluate the signs and symptoms of the disease, the usefulness of early skin biopsies and protoporphyrin and ferrochelatase determinations. A review of the literature brought forth the salient features of this inborn error of porphyrin metabolism and stressed the value of treatment with beta-carotene and canthaxantine but also the risk of the so-called "gold dust" retinopathy.
对三例红细胞生成性原卟啉病(EPP)病例的调查及随访,促使我们重新评估该病的体征和症状、早期皮肤活检以及原卟啉和亚铁螯合酶测定的作用。文献回顾揭示了这种卟啉代谢先天性异常的显著特征,并强调了β-胡萝卜素和角黄素治疗的价值,但也指出了所谓“金粉”视网膜病变的风险。
