    Author: Thornton FJ, Torreggiani WC, Brennan P.
    Journal: Eur J Radiol; 2000 Dec; 36(3):123-5. PubMed ID: 11091009.
    Abstract:
    Tophaceous gout of the spine is rare. We report the case of a 27-year-old male, renal transplant recipient, who presented with an acute onset of lower back pain. Radiological, biochemical and histo-pathological findings confirmed a diagnosis of tophaceous gout of the lumbar spine. We present the case history with the radiological findings and discuss the literature.
