ORIGINAL PAPERS

Porphyria cutanea tarda affecting a rheumatoid arthritis patient treated with methotrexate: association or coincidence?

P Chalem, AM Ghnassia, Y Nordmann and CJ Menkes
Department of Rheumatology, Hopital Cochin, Paris, France.

We describe the case of a 44-yr-old woman, suffering from rheumatoid arthritis for 15 yr, who developed porphyria cutanea tarda while being treated with methotrexate. The cutaneous lesions healed and the metabolic anomalies improved after a few months, despite continuing the treatment.
