Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is transmitted as an autosomal dominant disorder with incomplete penetrance. Recent population studies suggest that the prevalence of asymptomatic heterozygotes for a mutant AIP gene may be in the range of 1 in 2,000. Clinical manifestations include abdominal pain and neurological dysfunctions.

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1973
This rare inherited disease presents with abdominal pain, psychiatric symptoms and neuropathies. Because it may mimic an acute surgical (or less frequently, psychiatric) emergency, it is important in clinical practice. The complication of respiratory paralysis, with a mortality of over 90%, is almost solely due to aggravation of an attack by drugs ...

Acute intermittent porphyria (AIP) is characterised by neurovisceral crises the most common clinical presentation of which is abdominal pain. It is an autosomal dominant condition with incomplete penetrance and is potentially life-threatening. The key point in management is to suspect and confirm the diagnosis as early as possible in order to treat the

Therapy of the acute porphyrias
Clinical Biochemistry, 1989In the management of acute porphyria it is essential to be aware of the potential for many drugs to induce porphyrin synthesis and thus precipitate the acute porphyric crisis. In this review, lists of drugs unsafe and safe for use in the porphyrias are presented.
