Studies on the excretion pattern of porphyrins and its use as a tool for diagnosing both symptomatic and asymptomatic cases of porphyria cutanea tarda
1. 1. A family investigation was performed in eleven cases of Porphyria Cutanea Tarda (PCT). 2. 2. By using clinical findings, quantitative measurements and thin layer chromatography (TLC) of urinary porphyrins, overt and subclinical PCT patients have been identified. 3. 3. In the overt type, skin m...
