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.
Key highlights of the Alkaptonuria Market Report
- As per the US National Library of Medicine, alkaptonuria is rare, affecting 1 in 250,000 to 1 million people worldwide. Alkaptonuria is more common in certain areas of Slovakia and in the Dominican Republic. Alkaptonuria is an inherited condition that causes urine to turn black when exposed to air. Ochronosis, a buildup of dark pigment in connective tissues such as cartilage and skin, is also characteristic of the disorder.
- As per the article by Gil et al. titled “Orthopedic Manifestations of Ochronosis: Pathophysiology, Presentation, Diagnosis, and Management” alkaptonuria has an estimated prevalence ranging from 1:200,000 to 1:1,000,000 live births worldwide.
- As per NORD, alkaptonuria affects males and females in equal numbers, although symptoms tend to develop sooner and become more severe in males.
Alkaptonuria Epidemiology Insights
Affected individuals generally do not develop symptoms (asymptomatic) during infancy or childhood and often remain unaware of their condition until adulthood. The first noticeable signs and symptoms of Alkaptonuria usually do not develop until approximately 30 years of age and are due to chronic accumulation of homogentisic acid in connective tissue, especially cartilage.

Alkaptonuria Treatment Market
Alkaptonuria is a lifelong condition – there’s currently no specific treatment or cure. The treatment of alkaptonuria is aimed at the specific symptoms that are present in each individual. 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.
Alkaptonuria Market Insights
Alkaptonuria causes pain and stiffness, regular gentle exercise can actually help by building muscle and strengthening the joints. Exercise is also good for relieving stress, losing weight and improving your posture, all of which can ease your symptoms. The AKU Society recommends avoiding exercise that puts additional strain on the joints, such as boxing, football and rugby, and trying gentle exercise such as yoga, swimming and pilates instead.
Alkaptonuria Market Forecast
In older children and adults, high-doses of vitamin C have also been used to treat alkaptonuria because it hinders the accumulation and deposition of homogentisic acid. 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.
