Area of Science:

  • Rheumatology
  • Internal Medicine
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Relapsing polychondritis (polychondritis chronica atrophicans) is a rare systemic inflammatory disease affecting cartilaginous structures.
  • Clinical presentations and complications of this condition are not fully understood, necessitating further case-based analysis.

Purpose:

  • To present imperfectly known clinical aspects of relapsing polychondritis based on a series of 12 cases.
  • To highlight unusual manifestations and potential complications that may be underreported in existing literature.

Summary:

  • The study details 12 cases of relapsing polychondritis, observing atypical osteoarticular involvement (temporomandibular, cervical joints) and severe renal lesions.
  • Pericarditis appears more frequent than previously documented. Pulmonary complications may differ from classical tracheobronchial cartilage involvement, and hematological findings are common and prognostically significant.

Impact:

  • This case series expands the understanding of relapsing polychondritis's diverse clinical spectrum.
  • Highlights the importance of considering less common presentations and associated complications for accurate diagnosis and prognosis.
