Variegate porphyria with unusual neurologic manifestations.
A 62-year-old man with variegate porphyria is reported. This is the first case to be described in Greece. Apart from the common features of the disease this patient exhibited sensory loss of the syringomyelic type. Though variegate prophyria with neurologic manifestations is not uncommon syringomyelic type of sensory loss is most unusual.
