It is caused by UROS gene variants and may mimic severe systemic conditions, delaying diagnosis. Case Presentation: We report a male neonate born with asphyxia, hepatosplenomegaly, cytopenia, and multiorgan dysfunction, initially suspected to have familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Targeted panels for familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis and autoinflammatory disorders were negative. Red urine and photosensitive blistering lesions were observed. Rapid trio whole genome sequencing identified a homozygous NM_000375.3 (UROS):c.562G&gt;T (p.Gly188Trp) variant previously reported only in compound heterozygous patients and classified as pathogenic in ClinVar (RCV000003959). Subsequent biochemical testing confirmed markedly elevated porphyrin levels, establishing a diagnosis of CEP. Conclusion: This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of neonatal CEP, where systemic illness may obscure the classical signs. This underscores the value of a genomics-first approach in critically ill neonates.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1159\/000550162","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,22]],"date-time":"2025-12-22T17:00:51Z","timestamp":1766422851000},"page":"178-182","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Congenital Erythropoietic Porphyria in a Neonate: Utility of Rapid Whole Genome Sequencing \u2013 A Case Report"],"prefix":"10.1159","volume":"123","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8960-1176","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daigo","family":"Kajikawa","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rena","family":"Miura-Fuchino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ayako","family":"Hinata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yusuke","family":"Hoshino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshiya","family":"Yukitake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Junichi","family":"Arai","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kazuo","family":"Imagawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hisato","family":"Suzuki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kenjiro","family":"Kosaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Toshiki","family":"Takenouchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"127","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/bjh.13978"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-2133.2012.11160.x"},{"key":"ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000516890"},{"key":"ref4","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamapediatrics.2017.3438"},{"key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1365-2141.2002.03558.x"},{"key":"ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/liv.15958"},{"key":"ref7","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1182\/blood.2020006037"},{"key":"ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1126\/scitranslmed.aat7467"},{"key":"ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jpeds.2022.01.033"}],"container-title":["Neonatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article-pdf\/doi\/10.1159\/000550162","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,23]],"date-time":"2026-03-23T17:01:23Z","timestamp":1774285283000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/karger.com\/article\/doi\/10.1159\/000550162"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,22]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,23]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,4,2]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1159\/000550162","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{"is-supplemented-by":[{"id-type":"doi","id":"10.6084\/m9.figshare.30933032","asserted-by":"subject"}]},"ISSN":["1661-7800","1661-7819"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1661-7800","type":"print"},{"value":"1661-7819","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025,12,22]]}}}
