Persistent Beetroot Colored Urine in a Three‐Year‐Old Child: A Case Report
Clinically manifest porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) is rare in children. Of ~1400 cases diagnosed at Porphyria Center Sweden, only five were children, all with pathogenic UROD variants and HFE homozygous. Diagnosis is often delayed; in our case, beetroot‐red urine prompted suspicion despite the absence of cutaneous symptoms.

This case highlights the limitations of rigid UROD‐related porphyria classifications and supports the existence of a phenotypic continuum modulated by genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors.

ABSTRACT Porphyria cutanea tarda (PCT) is caused by inherited or acquired defects of uroporphyrinogen decarboxylase (UROD) in the heme biosynthetic pathway. Altered iron homeostasis via hemochromatosis gene (HFE) mutations is one of many susceptibility factors associated with the sporadic form of PCT.
