✦ Synopsis

In that article, the authors reported "acute episodes of painful swelling" in which the involved joints (knees, ankles, elbows, and interphalangeal joints) "were red, warm, swollen and painful for periods of two to three weeks"; this was first noted in a 25-year-old individual who, at that time, was the sole surviving patient ofthe original report of Lowe et al. At autopsy 4 years later, the articular surfaces were noted to be thickened without synovitis, as more elegantly detailed in the recent report.
