A

Joint aspiration

32
Q

What are 2 crystal induced arthritises?

A

Gout

Calcium Pyrophosphate Crystal Deposition

33
Q

Gout involves transient attacks of acute arthritis due to what?

A

Monosodium Urate Crystallization in and around joints

34
Q

What change will be seen in the plasma with Gout?

A

Hyperuricemia > 6.8

35
Q

In order to have symptomatic Gout, Hyperuricemia > 6.8 in the plasma must be present along with a few of the following?

36
Q

What is the hallmark of Gout?

A

Tophi

= Urate crystal aggregates with foreign body giant cells

37
Q

What is the hallmark of Gout?

A

Tophi

= Urate crystal aggregations with foreign body giant cells

38
Q

Gout Acute Arthritis involves pain and warmth where and why?

A

BIG TOE

– low temps help monosodium urate crystalize

39
Q

Gout Chronic Tophaceous Arthritis occurs about 10 years after the Acute. What characterizes it?

A

Urate forms visible deposits in synovium

– Bone erosion too

40
