Abstract

Alkaptonuria is an autosomal recessive disease caused bythe accumulation of homogentisic acid (HGA) products inthe ligament, cartilage, skin and various organs due to thelack of HGA oxidase enzyme. In this article, we presenta 61-year-old male patient operated on due to a diagnosisof spontaneous Achilles tendon rupture and diagnosed asalkaptonuria due to the intraoperative color of the tissues andthe subsequent examinations. We also reviewed alkaptonuriaand its accompanying pathologies in light of the literature.
