  • Title: Urine porphyrins and their precursors in homozygous beta-thalassaemia.
    Author: Lyberatos C, Papadopoulos N, Papasteriadis E, Mitsiou C, Philippidou A, Gardikas C.
    Journal: Acta Haematol; 1975; 54(2):95-7. PubMed ID: 808946.
    Abstract:
    In 68 patients with homozygous beta-thalassaemia the excretion of porphyrins and porphyrin precursors in urine has been assayed. Though a definite excretion pattern has not been established, the majority of the thalassaemics excrete an increased amount of coproporphyrin and porphobilinogen. The results are compared to those published by other authors.
