Tophaceous gout of the nose in a male FMR1 premutation carrier

Tophaceous gout of the nose in a male FMR1 premutation carrier

Abstract Premutation alleles with 55–200 CGG repeats in FMR1 can lead to fragile X‐associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS). In this case study, we report uncontrolled gout in a 68‐year‐old male with FXTAS with multiple sites of involvement including a rare gouty tophus in the nasal region.
