Core Tip	Hyperuricemia is a key factor in the formation of gouty tophus, and it is often detected on the first metatarsophalangeal or first metacarpophalangeal joints of both hands. It is rarely reported in the head and neck areas, such as the throat and auricle. We believe that clinicians should be aware of the possibility of gouty tophus in patients with a history of gout, especially in some rare regions. For surgeons, an accurate preoperative diagnosis can help determine the appropriate operation mode and incision size.
