Alkaptonuria: An Overview
Alkaptonuria, or “black urine disease”, is a very rare inherited disorder that prevents the body fully breaking down two protein building blocks (amino acids) called tyrosine and phenylalanine. It is a rare disorder of autosomal recessive inheritance. It is caused by a mutation in a gene that results in the accumulation of homogentisic acid (HGA). Characteristically, the excess HGA means sufferers pass dark urine, which upon standing turns black. This is a feature present from birth. Over time patients develop other manifestations of AKU, due to deposition of HGA in collagenous tissues, namely ochronosis and ochronotic osteoarthropathy.

Individuals with alkaptonuria often receive anti-inflammatory medications to treat joint pain. In severe cases, stronger medications such as narcotics may be recommended. Pain management is tailored to each individual’s specific case and requires long-term follow up and adjustment.

However, long-term use of vitamin C has generally proven ineffective and definite clinical studies on its efficacy are lacking. Hip or knee replacement, shoulder joint replacement, lumbar laminectomy, valve replacement. Any synovial joint may require arhtroplasty. Renal stone disease may require urological procedures including nephrostomy. Repair of ruptured ligaments and tendons may require a surgical approach. Any surgery required in non-Alkaptonuric patients may also be needed in AKU patients.
