Coexistent rheumatoid arthritis and tophaceous gout: a case report.

AUTOR(ES)
RESUMO

Rheumatoid arthritis and gout are both common rheumatic diseases, but their coincidence is rare. We report the case of a 67-year-old Caucasian woman with rheumatoid arthritis who later developed tophaceous gout. The tophi disappeared with remarkable rapidity on treatment with allopurinol.
