Gouty Arthritis with Massive Tophaceous Deposits Involving Bilateral Metatarsophalangeal Joints, Surgical Treatment with Excision and Reconstruction - A Case Report.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Introduction: Gout is characterized by the deposition of monosodium urate crystals and the formation of tophaceous deposits, which can lead to arthritis and bony erosions. While bony erosions in gouty arthritis are common, massive erosions of bone with the destruction of complete bone are rarely described. Case Report: We report a case of gouty arthritis with bilateral first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint involvement with bone erosion involving adjacent bones. Both sides were treated by surgical treatment with the excision of entire tophaceous deposits, the first MTP joint and the adjacent involved bones followed by reconstruction using interposition grafts. The patient was able to walk comfortably at the end of 6 months, with good cosmetic correction and healing of the wound. Conclusion: Surgical excision and reconstruction with intercalary graft for a massive tophaceous deposit around the first MTP joint can give satisfactory results.
