Abstract
Introduction

Alkaptonuria is a hereditary metabolic disease, characterised by the triad: dark urine, connective tissue pigmentation (ochronosis) and degenerative arthritis of the weight-bearing joints.

Clinical cases

We present two cases of ochronotic arthropathy treated by arthroplasty.

Conclusions

Given that there is currently no medical treatment that can halt or reverse this metabolic process, arthroplasties, are, at present, a good therapeutic option in cases that have progressed to joint involvement.

Keywords:
Ochronosis
Arthropathy
Knee
Hip
Resumen
Introducción

La alcaptonuria es una enfermedad metabólica hereditaria caracterizada por la tríada: orina oscura, pigmentación del tejido conectivo (ocronosis) y artritis degenerativa de las articulaciones de carga.

Casos clínicos

Presentamos dos casos de artropatía ocronótica tratados mediante artroplastia.

Conclusiones

Dado que en la actualidad no existe ningún tratamiento médico que pueda frenar o revertir este proceso metabólico, las artroplastias son hasta el momento una buena opción terapéutica en casos evolucionados de afectación articular.
