hyperaminoaciduria
Hyperaminoaciduria is a medical condition characterized by the excessive excretion of amino acids in the urine. This occurs when the kidneys fail to properly reabsorb amino acids from the bloodstream, leading to their increased levels in urine. It can result from various factors, including genetic disorders, metabolic issues, or kidney dysfunction.
The condition can be diagnosed through urine tests that measure amino acid levels. Treatment typically focuses on addressing the underlying cause, which may involve dietary changes or medications. Monitoring is essential to prevent potential complications, such as nutritional deficiencies or kidney damage.
