CONT

Gout presents in birds in two not entirely distinct syndromes :visceral and articular. Articular gout is most common in older budgies and is thought to be associated with renal tubular changes due to Vitamin A deficiencies. High plasma uric acid levels and urate joint... render a very guarded prognosis, even with the use of anti-gout medications. Visceral gout is characterized by large amount of urates deposited in serosal areas, particularly the pericardium and peritoneum. Uric acid levels are frequently normal with this condition, with a common history of "sudden death".

French

On peut de même diagnostiquer des cas de goutte articulaire et viscérale qui sont plus fréquents chez les sujets vieux ou affaiblis.
