Abstract

Gouty tophi presenting as multiple large periarticular masses could be mistaken for rheumatoid nodules, neoplasm, neurofibroma, or infection. Aspiration of synovial fluid from inflamed joints or examination of whitish material expressed though breaks in skin usually assists with the diagnosis of gout.

摘要

表现为多个大的关节周围肿块的痛风石可能会被误诊为类风湿结节、肿瘤、神经纤维瘤或感染。从发炎关节抽取滑液或检查经皮肤破损处挤出的白色物质通常有助于痛风的诊断。
