Relapsing polychondritis is a rare disease of unknown etiology. It is characterized by progressive episodic recurring inflammation and degeneration of cartilaginous structures. The inflammation typically involves the cartilage of the ear, nose, trachea, and various peripheral joints. Treatment options most commonly involve the use of anti-inflammatory drugs and corticosteroids.
