Visceral gout in a rough legged hawk (Buteo lagopus).
Visceral gout is reported for the first time in a rough legged hawk (Buteo lagopus). Urate crystals were present on the pericardium, thoracic and abdominal air sacs, and the ventral surface of the liver. The liver and spleen also had urate crystals throughout the parenchyma. There was no indication of articular or renal involvement. The immediate cause of death in this hawk was not identified, ...

Gout is increasing in prevalence throughout the world, particularly in developed countries. The causes are dietary--purine-rich foods, high saturated fats, fructose-containing drinks and alcohol. Gout is also drug-related and associated with increased obesity, hypertension, insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. Although very readily treated, there is evidence that physicians fail to optimi...

متن کاملA Retrospective Study of Postmortem Findings in Redtailed Hawks
--We studied necropsy results from carcasses of 163 red-tailed hawks (Buteo jamaicensis) submitted to the National Wildlife Health Center from 1975 through 1992. The most frequent postmortem finding was emaciation of unknown etiology, diagnosed in 33 (20%) carcasses. Proportionally more juveniles than adults were emaciated. Evidence of non-gunshot rauma, often suggestive of collision with vehic...
متن کاملTotal fasting, hyperuricaemia and gout.
The purpose of this communication is to draw attention to the apparently harmless hyperuricaemia which results from treating obese patients by total fasting. In such patients there is a progressive fall in the glomerular filtration rate during the fasting period resulting in the renal retention of urate (Murphy & Shipman, 1964). In addition there is competition between the ketone bodies and ura...
