Overview

ALA dehydratase deficiency (also called ALAD porphyria) is a rare cause of hepatic porphyria. It is an autosomal recessive disorder that results from inappropriately low levels of the enzyme ALA dehydratase (ALAD, also called porphobilinogen synthase), which is required for normal heme synthesis.
