Abstract
<p class="first" id="d10185469e117">Imaging and pathology studies have established
a close relationship between tophus
and bone erosion in gout. The tophus is an organized structure consisting of urate
crystals and chronic inflammatory tissue. The aim of this work was to examine the
relationship between bone erosion and each component of the tophus.
