How do you pronounce porphyria?

In: Conditions and Diseases [Edit categories]

Answer:

Porphyria (Poor-fear-E-ah)

Porphyria is not a single disease but a group of at least eight disorders that differ considerably from each other. A common feature in all porphyrias is the accumulation in the body of "porphyrins" or "porphyrin precursors." Although these are normal body chemicals, they normally do not accumulate. Precisely which of these chemicals builds up depends upon the type of porphyria.
