I have seen plenty of late effects of uric acid.

When the cartilage erodes away, I have seen the defect look white, an intra osseous cyst full of it or a gouty tophus(like a big pimple or boil) that erodes through the skin. It looks just like toothpaste. It is bright white, very distinctive looking.
