Abstract
[ French and Spanish summ. ] Details are given of a patient with gout, megaloblastic anemia, and steatorrhea. The implications of this association are discussed, especially the relation of folic acid deficiency to uric acid metabolism. Persistence of gout in a patient treated for megaloblastic anemia with vitamin B12 may be a pointer to underlying folic acid deficiency, especially if the hematological response has not been complete.
