Gout is a chronic disease due to the deposition of monosodium urate microcrystals in joints and tissues. Its incidence and prevalence are increasing worldwide in close relation with the epidemic of obesity and metabolic syndrome. Gout is related to chronic hyperuricemia that should be treated to ensure the reduction or even the disappearance of acute attacks ("gout flares") and to reduce the size and number of tophi.

Synovial fluid analysis is a very important diagnostic procedure in rheumatology. Cell count allows the differentiation ting between inflammatory arthritis, in which cell count exceeds 2000 cells/mm3, and non inflammatory arthropathy, in which cell count is less than 1000 cells/mm3. Demonstration of crystals in synovial fluid is a rapid and inexpensive way to diagnose microcrystalline arthritis.

Rice bodies are often found in inflammatory joint fluid specimens, especially from rheumatoid arthritis patients, but have rarely been reported in osteoarthritis. We found rice bodies in knee joint fluid specimens from four of 88 patients with osteoarthritis. There were three males and one female.

Although not strictly of crystalline nature, various formations can be observed in joint fluids and be responsible for "microcrystalline" arthritis. They can consist of lipidic structures (cholesterol crystals, fatty lobules, liposomes) or calcium crystalline structures such as calcium oxalate crystals detected in fluids of dialyzed chronic renal failure patients, reflecting primary or secondary oxalosis. Other phosphate calcium crystals have been identified, associated to apatite or pyrophosphate crystals, but their pathogenic role is uncertain.
