{Abstract}: Porphyria caused by inherited disorders in heme biosynthesis can lead to accumulation of porphyrins in various organs. Liver involvement due to porphyria mostly results in cholestasis leading to liver cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. Congenital erythropoietic porphyria (CEP), a rare porphyria due to deficiency of uroporphyrinogen III synthase, mostly results in cutaneous manifestations. There are reports of liver involvement including varying degree of fibrosis in patients with CEP. We report a unique case of a patient with CEP who developed porto-sinusoidal vascular disease with complications of portal hypertension that necessitated liver transplantation.
