Tophaceous gout of the patella is rare and may masquerade as a tumour or tumour-like condition.<jats:italic>Cases<\/jats:italic>. We report two patients with gout involving the patella, one complicated by a pathological fracture and the other occurring in a bipartite patella in a young adult.<jats:italic>Discussion<\/jats:italic>. Typical imaging appearances and measurement of serum urate will usually confirm the diagnosis but, occasionally, the serum urate level may be normal in active gout and in such cases, a biopsy will be required.<jats:italic>Conclusion<\/jats:italic>. Gout of the patella may masquerade as a tumour or tumour-like condition and it is important to consider gout in the differential diagnosis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/2012\/253693","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2012,11,11]],"date-time":"2012-11-11T06:31:14Z","timestamp":1352615474000},"page":"1-6","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Tophaceous Gout of the Patella: A Report of Two Cases"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2012","author":[{"given":"Graeme","family":"Hopper","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Trauma and Orthopaedics, Glasgow Royal Infirmary, 84 Castle Street, Glasgow G4 0SF, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sanjay","family":"Gupta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Trauma and Orthopaedics, Glasgow Royal Infirmary, 84 Castle Street, Glasgow G4 0SF, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sarath","family":"Bethapudi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiology, Glasgow Western Infirmary, Dumbarton Road, Glasgow G11 6NT, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Ritchie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Radiology, Glasgow Western Infirmary, Dumbarton Road, Glasgow G11 6NT, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Elaine","family":"MacDuff","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pathology, Glasgow Western Infirmary, Dumbarton Road, Glasgow G11 6NT, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ashish","family":"Mahendra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Trauma and Orthopaedics, Glasgow Royal Infirmary, 84 Castle Street, Glasgow G4 0SF, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"98","reference":[{"issue":"5","key":"1","first-page":"543","volume":"22","year":"1999","journal-title":"Orthopedics"},{"issue":"4","key":"2","first-page":"241","volume":"52","year":"1993","journal-title":"Zeitschrift fur Rheumatologie"},{"key":"3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.knee.2006.09.001"},{"issue":"7","key":"4","first-page":"1421","volume":"24","year":"1997","journal-title":"Journal of Rheumatology"},{"issue":"8","key":"5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1286","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-198668080-00023","volume":"68","year":"1986","journal-title":"Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery A"},{"issue":"5","key":"6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"365","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00361426","volume":"18","year":"1989","journal-title":"Skeletal Radiology"},{"issue":"7","key":"7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1359","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-196648070-00009","volume":"48","year":"1966","journal-title":"Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery A"},{"issue":"389","key":"8","first-page":"35","year":"2001","journal-title":"Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research"},{"issue":"5","key":"9","first-page":"959","volume":"32","year":"2005","journal-title":"Journal of Rheumatology"},{"issue":"22","key":"10","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"979","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM195512012532207","volume":"253","year":"1955","journal-title":"The New England Journal of Medicine"},{"key":"11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1145\/1111449.1111501"},{"key":"12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00439058"},{"issue":"2","key":"13","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"113","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00563204","volume":"23","year":"1994","journal-title":"Skeletal Radiology"},{"key":"14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3899\/jrheum.080938"},{"key":"15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s00330-008-1180-x"}],"container-title":["Case Reports in Rheumatology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crirh\/2012\/253693.pdf","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crirh\/2012\/253693.xml","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"http:\/\/downloads.hindawi.com\/journals\/crirh\/2012\/253693.pdf","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2017,6,21]],"date-time":"2017-06-21T02:34:00Z","timestamp":1498012440000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"http:\/\/www.hindawi.com\/journals\/crirh\/2012\/253693\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2012]]},"references-count":15,"alternative-id":["253693","253693"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1155\/2012\/253693","relation":{},"ISSN":["2090-6889","2090-6897"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2090-6889","type":"print"},{"value":"2090-6897","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2012]]}}}
