Hepatic porphyrias is a form of porphyria in which toxic porphyrin molecules build up in the liver. Hepatic porphyrias can result from a number of different enzyme deficiencies.[1]
Examples include (in order of synthesis pathway):[citation needed]
Acute intermittent porphyria
Porphyria cutanea tarda and Hepatoerythropoietic porphyria
