Term info
Label
Increased urinary porphobilinogen
comment
Increased porphobilinogen (PBG) in urine is pathognomonic of an attack of acute porphyria (acute intermittent porphyria, variegate porphyria, hereditary coproporphyria); the absence of increased urinary PBG in a suspected attack excludes the diagnosis.
