Commonly, accumulation of HGA presents with dark discoloration of skin and other tissues, also known as ochronosis. Additionally, alkaptonuria can result in other clinical manifestations, including arthritis and cardiac disease. This case highlights alkaptonuria-related cardiac disease and challenges that cardiac surgery teams may face when treating this patient population.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Case summary<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>A 62-year-old male with a history of alkaptonuria, Hodgkin\u2019s lymphoma treated with chemoradiation, hypertension, and hyperlipidaemia originally presented with shortness of breath in the setting of known cardiac disease. Cardiac work-up demonstrated aortic stenosis, mitral stenosis, and multivessel coronary artery disease requiring aortic valve replacement, mitral valve replacement, and coronary artery bypass grafting. During the operation, significant discoloration of tissue was observed. This correlated with areas of severe calcification, which was noted throughout both valves. Extensive debridement was required prior to proceeding to valve replacements. Additionally, near-infrared spectroscopy failed to provide accurate measurements of cerebral oxygenation.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Alkaptonuria is correlated with cardiovascular disease, particularly valvular disease. Intraoperatively, these patients may exhibit noticeable discoloration and severe calcification of various tissues. Additionally, traditional infrared-based methods of cerebral oxygenation monitoring may not be reliable; however, other options of cerebral monitoring may be feasible. With proper pre-operative planning, however, patients with alkaptonuria may safely undergo cardiac surgery.<\/jats:p>\n
