Abstract
Gout, a disorder in purine metabolism, has been written about since the time of Hippocrates. Manifestations of gout in the hand and wrist are well documented in terms of subcutaneous nodules and synovial involvement of joints and tendons. However, there is much less written about bone and ligament lesions of the wrist in association with gout. Three cases of bone lesions and 2 cases of ligament lesions of the wrist are documented. The presentations were varied. Treatment recommendations included medical management in most cases, with surgical intervention in selected cases.
