Abstract
Monosodium urate deposits almost exclusively in the connective tissue of patients with gout. Thereby the question arises why the connective tissue is the predilective locus for monosodium urate. Several theories about the localised deposition of monosodium urate crystals in connective tissue demonstrate the interaction of urate with the components of the connective tissue.
