Jaccoud’s Arthropathy in Gout : An Unusual Association

الملخص EN

Jaccoud’s arthropathy (JA) is a deforming arthropathy observed mainly in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

We report the case of a 41-year-old Brazilian man with a 10-year history of intermittent monoarthritis followed by bouts of polyarthritis affecting large and small joints.

He presented deformities typical of JA and subcutaneous nodules.

Histopathological findings of a nodule biopsy were consistent with gouty tophi.

To our knowledge, this is the first report of JA secondary to chronic gout.
