Aim To study clinical features and connection in cerebrovascular disease incorporated gout. Methods We retrospective investigated 376 with stroke patients and 150 cases gout patients from February 1998 to May 2000. All patients were admitted to the medicine treatment and were examined by brain CT or MRI, biochemical and serological assessment. Results There were fifteen cases with cerebrovascular disease incorporated gout, fourteen were male, one case female. The average age was 69.3 years. Nine patients were infarcted brain, four patients were transient ischemic attack (TIA) and two patients were hemorrhage, another four patients were recurrent stroke. Conclusions Stroke incorporated gout is higher in foreland and male. Ischemic strokes were higher. They were usually associated with hypertension, heart disease, diabetes and high serum cholesterol. Stroke attack was linked with acute gout attack. Gout is probably the main risk factor for cerebrovascular disease in foreland and male.
