Abstract
Xanthoma is a rare condition mostly caused by hyperlipidemia. The pathogenesis of gout is hyperuricemia, which is caused by a disorder of purine metabolism and/or a decrease in uric acid excretion. Xanthoma combined with gout is very rare. This case report presents magnetic resonance images of a case of xanthoma combined with gout infiltration of the Achilles tendon.
