Acute GOUT can be effectively treated with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and recurrent episodes can be prevented with the uricostatic xanthine oxidase inhibitors. This study was conducted to determine the EPIDEMIOLOGY and CLINICAL MANIFESTATIONs of 100 patients with acute or chronic GOUT in Imam Khomeini Hospital in Tehran, Iran.Methods: One-hundred patients with GOUT who referred to the Rheumatology Department were reviewed.

Thirty three percent of the patients were smokers and 10% drank alcohol. Seventy cases had previous GOUT attack of whom, 56 were in the first metotarso-phalangeal joint.
