Possible effectiveness of plasmapheresis on the neurological complications in a case of acute intermittent porphyria.

D Sità, S Maurri, C Groppi, F Barontini.   

Abstract

A 56 year old woman with acute intermittent porphyria presented mainly motor polyneuropathy, ophthalmoparesis of probable supranuclear origin and a mild organic brain syndrome. The neurological complications gradually cleared during a course of plasmapheresis. The fairly rapid improvement could conceivably have been fortuitous but it may well have been due to plasmapheresis.
