It results in the accumulation in the blood of homogentisic acid which is excreted in the urine. The presence of homogentisic acid in the urine causes its color to turn black. The excessive amount of homogentisic acid in the blood may cause damage to cartilage and heart valves, and may result in the formation of kidney stones.
