homeostasis/metabolism
• teeth, liver, spleen, bones and kidneys are a reddish-brown color due to accumulation of porphyrins
• massive accumulation of porphyrins is found in the blood, urine, and feces
• red urine

hematopoietic system
• spleen is enlarged and has a brownish color due to accumulation of porphyrins
• high reticulocyte count and presence of many erythroblasts with poikilocytosis and anisochromia indicate ongoing hemolysis
• severe microcytic and hypochromic anemia
• increase in the number of erythroid precursor cells
• enlarged red pulp and increase in erythroid precursor cells
