We report a case of acute gouty monoarthritis of the left ankle in a 58-year-old female with chronic renal insufficiency after cryoablation of a 3.8 cm left renal cell carcinoma. The patient's symptoms resolved after intravenous Solumedrol and did not recur at her 1-month follow-up visit. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported case of acute gouty monoarthritis after cryoablation of a renal cell carcinoma lesion in a patient with underlying chronic renal insufficiency. Clinicians should be vigilant of the potential for this complication in at-risk patient populations. Keywords: Gout, Arthritis, Gouty Arthritis, Ablation, Cryoablation, Renal Cell Carcinoma |
