Description

A 30-year-old man with chronic renal failure developed bullae and erosions of the skin of the dorsum of his hands about 4 years after the initiation of hemodialysis treatment. Biopsy specimens revealed subepidermal bullae, liver function tests were normal and erythrocyte and stool porphyrins were at normal levels. It was speculated that prolonged excretory disturbance of the surplus porphyrins into the urine and the dialysate might have caused skin deposition of the porphyrins, leading to a photosensitive skin.
