Audio-Vestibular Findings in Patients with Hyperuricemia
Background: Hyperuricemiais a common biochemical disturbance in which serum concentration of uric acid exceeds the normal values which is 7.0 mg/dl in men and more than 6.0 mg/dl in women leading to deposition of monosodium urate [MSU] crystals in joints and soft tissues resulting in inner ear funct...
