| ====Clinical Summary====
| |
| | |
| This patient was diagnosed with gout approximately 20 years ago. At that time, he noted the gradual onset of pain in the left knee, followed by swelling, redness and heat, all of which persisted for approximately one month. Shortly thereafter, he had periodic episodes of hot, painful, swollen joints involving the left knee, left ankle, and both first metatarsophalangeal joints. At this time the patient was hospitalized for evaluation of these arthritides. Serum uric acid values on three separate occasions were 8.0, 9.3, and 8.7 mg/dl. In addition to the presence of the painful swollen joints, a gouty tophus was present on the left arm. The patient was readmitted to the hospital from time to time because of acute exacerbations of gouty arthritis. On the most recent hospital admission, a 3-cm tophus was found over the right elbow, as well as several smaller tophi over the right hand.
| |
| | |
| ====Autopsy Findings====
| |
| | |
| The specimen consisted of an elliptically shaped, mottled, yellow-white irregular hard mass, measuring 8.0 x 5.0 x 2.0 cm. in diameter.
| |
| | |
| ====Histopathological Findings====
