OBJECTIVES The student will achieve: 1. An understanding of the clinical presentation
of crystalline synovitis. 2. Understanding of the importance of
polarizing microscopy in making the diagnosis. 3. Understanding of the diagnostic value of
other clinical data (history , tophi, radiographs, therapeutic response)
4. Understanding of the therapeutic approaches to crystalline synovitis, including pharmacologic information.

“Gout” defined: Gout: a metabolic condition characterized by
excessive accumulation of uric acid in the blood stream which may lead to deposition of
uric acid crystals in and around the joints, painful attacks of arthritis, impairment of renal
function, and kidney stones.

no associated gout Hyperuricemia is associated with
hypertension, cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, renal diseases and metabolic syndrome

Asymptomatic Hyperuricemia is common All patients with gout have hyperuricemia
chronically Gout is caused by hyperuricemia Acute gouty arthritis patients may have
hyperuricemia (80%) Prevalence of gout ~ 1% of men Estrogen is uricosuric

Hyperuricemia Causes Under-excretion (90% of
cases) dehydration, starvation,
ketosis (post-op) renal abnormality (RTA) drugs: diuretics low-dose
aspirin toxins, ethanol, lead hypothyroidism
Over-production (10% of cases)

Allopurinol Side Effects
Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN/ Stevens-Johnson syndrome)
Incidence of ~ 0.5% High serum levels of oxypurinol may
increase risk Azotemia may increase risk

Allopurinol Safety
Potentiates azathioprine serum levels Potentiates warfarin effects ACE inhibitors increase risk of TEN Arellano & Sacristan, Ann Pharmacother
27:337-43;1993 76/101 patients with hypersensitivity syndrome
were receiving allopurinol for asymptomatic hyperuricemia

Allopurinol Safety
Roujeau JC et. al, NEJM 333:1600-07;1995.
Case control study in 4 European countries to determine relative risk associated with meds and TEN-Stevens-Johnson syndrome
RR of allopurinol = 52 (16-167) RR of phenytoin = 53 (11-infinity) RR of pen = 7, ceph = 14

Important drug interactions Azathioprine Mercaptopurine Cyclosporin
(another important “interaction” is shown: “Boston Tea Party”)

Aspirin (ASA)
Low dose (100-300 mg) ASA exhibits first-order pharmacokinetics and inhibits tubular secretion of UA
High dose (>1.0 gm) ASA exhibits zero-order pharmacokinetics, is an effective uricosuric, and may be responsible for the historical observation that RA and gout do not co-exist

Cyclosporin
Major cause of hyperuricemia in organ transplant patients
Tacrolimus similar effects Complex pathophysiology
– Reduced GFR – Reduced urate secretion from proximal tubule – Other effects on tubular function

Ethanol
High dietary purines (beer) Ethanol -- acetate -- acetyl-CoA
metabolism produces large amounts of AMP in liver
If AMP production exceeds rates of ATP regeneration then excess AMP is metabolized to uric acid
Ethanol inhibits UrCl (organic acids and dehydration)

Co-existing conditions
Gout can occur with infectious arthritis, CPPD, psoriatic arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis
Joint aspiration with cultures and crystal examination is optimal approach to diagnosis and management

Hyperuricemia and Gout
Hyperuricemia is not a disease (?) – Feig et al. NEJM October 23, 2008
Gout is diagnosed by examination of
synovial fluid
Allopurinol is not the only treatment

CPPD some more clinical facts
“DISH” diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis is common
CPPD is a common radiographic finding in the elderly
Radiographs and symptoms do not always correlate
Treatment is simpler than gouty arthritis therapies
