Brown yellow arthritis

Brown yellow disease is a rare genetic disorder of amino acid metabolism disorders. The lack of melanic acid oxidase in the liver of patients results in a large amount of melanic acid that is not oxidatively decomposed and deposited in various tissues and organs of the body. If uric acid is deposited in the joint structure, it can cause brown-yellow arthritis.
