



Metabolic disorder that disrupts the body’s control of
uric acid production or excretion
Gout manifests high levels of uric acid in the blood
and other body fluids
Occurs when the uric acid concentration increases to
high enough levels to crystallize
Crystals deposit in connective tissues throughout the
body
When these crystals occur in the synovial fluid, the
inflammation is known as “gouty arthritis”
