Hello, Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a common amino acid metabolic disease caused by an enzyme defect in the phenylalanine (PA) metabolic pathway, which prevents phenylalanine from being converted into tyrosine. This leads to the accumulation of phenylalanine and its ketone bodies, which are excreted in large amounts in the urine.Medical Advice: Hello, this disease is classified as a genetic disorder. There is no hospital that claims it can be completely cured.
