ABSTRACT
A rare condition equally affecting any gender and age group,
pseudoporphyria is characterized by painful blistering of sunexposed
areas, with clinical/histological findings suggestive of
porphyria cutanea tarda, but without its biochemical changes.
This article describes a patient with typical lesions and adequate
therapeutic response, and reviews existing literature.
