A 47-year-old man was treated by continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis
(CAPD) because of chronic glomerulonephritis. One year later he developed skin
friability and bullous dermatosis resembling porphyria cutanea tarda. The skin
lesions were associated with an elevation of serum aminotransferases, most
probably due to a bloodtransfusion-induced, non-A non-B hepatitis.
KEY WORDS: Non-A non-B hepatitis; Bullous dermatosis; Pseudoporphyria cutanea tarda; Porphyrins.
