порфирија
A group of rare, usually inherited disorders that affect the skin or nervous system and may cause abdominal pain. When a person has porphyria, cells fail to change porphyrins (body chemicals) into heme, the substance that gives blood its red color. Porphyrins then build up in the body and cause illness.
