ABSTRACT
Acute intermittent porphyria(AIP) is a rare inherited metabolic disease that can cause severe and fatal acute attacks. This article shares the treatment and management of a severe AIP patient. It is proposed that (1) avoiding incentives is essential; (2) emotional problems easily overlooked should be paid attention; (3) long-term follow-up and patient education can improve the prognosis. The patient underwent renal biopsy during the remission period. We found a red-brown-yellow-white refractive index crystal under a polarized light microscope that had not been reported in the previous literature, which was speculated to be a porphyrin crystal.
