Variegate Porphyria (VP) is one of the acute hepatic porphyrias, and is clinically characterised by skin lesions and acute neuropsychiatric/visceral attacks that occur separately or together. The disorder is caused by a partial deficiency of protoporphyrinogen oxidase, the penultimate enzyme in the

Variegate porphyria is an autosomal dominant disorder of haem metabolism resulting from a partial decrease in protoporphyrinogen oxidase activity. Variegate porphyria is highly prevalent in South Africa, the result of a founder effect now confirmed genetically as a single point mutation (R59W) which
