Abstract
Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a rare multisystemic disease predominantly involving the extracellular matrix. Typical manifestations are chondritis of the ears, nose and trachea as well as an asymmetrical oligoarthritis or polyarthritis of small and also larger joints. Various other involvements have also been described. The treatment of RP is individually dependent on a variety of factors, e.g., organ manifestations. Glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants and targeted treatment are implemented. In the case of seronegative rheumatoid arthritis or vasculitis with an atypical course the symptoms of RP should be taken into consideration.
