Abstract
Introduction
Erythropoietic Protoporphyria (EPP) caused skin light sensitivity and liver cirrhosis in a 35-year-old patient who subsequently developed liver-failure.
Methods
In absence of a human leukocyte antigens (HLA)-matched-unrelated donor, the father consented in donating for split liver transplantation (SLT) and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).
Results
After bridging therapy and successful SLT a first paternal HCT resulted in graft failure. For a second haploidentical HCT a different regimen was applied leading to engraftment while protoporphyrin (PP) blood-levels decreased to normal and skin light sensitivity skin disappeared, leading to complete remission in an immunosuppressive-free patient.
Conclusion
Haploidentical transplantation is a feasible treatment approach in EPP-patients.
