Abstract

Aminoaciduria is a normal finding, since normal subjects excrete finite amounts of amino acids, the pattern of amino acid excretion varying greatly among individuals. Hyperaminoaciduria can be defined in different ways: by an excessive fraction of total urinary nitrogen; by an increase in the total 24-hour excretion value; or by an exaggerated renal clearance. A generalized aminoaciduria with acidosis and hypophosphatemia distinguishes the De Toni-Fanconi and Lowe syndromes, both of which will be herewith discussed.
