Cystic pseudotumours in both upper ankle joints in gouty arthritis
چکیده انگلیسی

This case demonstrates a yet unreported clinical entity of bilateral tophaceous cystic lesions of the tibiotalar joints of an 37-year-old white male who presents with moderate painful swelling in both upper ankle joints for 2 years. Radiodiagnostic studies show cystic lesions in both upper ankle joints and the right talus considering neoplastic processes in the differential diagnosis. The incisional biopsy reveals chalk-like material of the intraosseous lesions which was pathognomonic for tophaceous gout. Antihyperuricemic medication led to a stagnation of growth of the lesions without a sign of osseous remodeling. However, due to limitation of discomfort, personal preferences and a lack of surgical options conservative treatment was maintained.
