Successful outcome of haemodialysis-induced pseudoporphyria after short-term oral N-acetylcysteine and switch to high-flux technique dialysis.
Pseudoporphyria is a blistering disease with skin fragility and shallow scarring that clinically and histopathologically closely resembles porphyria cutanea tarda. The two conditions can be distinguished by porphyrin levels that typically are elevated in porphyria cutanea tarda, but not or only slightly in pseudoporphyria. Pseudoporphyria can be induced by various medications (e.g. non-steroida...

متن کاملN-acetylcysteine: short-term clinical benefits after coronary angiography in high-risk renal patients.
INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES Previous studies on the role of N-acetylcysteine in the prevention of contrast-induced nephropathy after coronary angiography and on the drug's long-term effects have produced contradictory findings. The aim of this study was to clarify the benefits of N-acetylcysteine. METHODS A prospective, randomized, double-blind study was carried out in patients with chronic r...
متن کاملPseudoporphyria Associated with Nonhemodialyzed Renal Insufficiency, Successfully Treated with Oral N-Acetylcysteine
Pseudoporphyria (PP) is a relatively rare, photodistributed bullous dermatosis that resembles porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT), but it is not accompanied by porphyrin abnormalities in the serum, urine, or stool. It was initially described in renal failure patients on dialysis. Thereafter, it has been associated with several aetiological factors. We report a case of PP in a 67-year-old woman with m...
