Caso clinico: Gota.

Changes in diet, including holiday-related overindulgence in certain foods and beverages, can cause gout attacks.[1] This photograph demonstrates the classic physical examination findings of gout in the great toe. The most common crystalline-induced arthropathies—gout and calcium pyrophosphate deposition disease (CPPD, or pseudogout)—can be debilitating to patients. Although they are both diseases of crystal deposition and share similar names, the two have very different presentations, complications, and treatment options. Each disease process also has pathognomonic findings on imaging, which are important for clinicians to readily identify.
