    Abstract:
    Relapsing polychondritis is an infrequently recognized disease. Its etiology is unknown. It is characterized by recurrent and potentially destructive inflammatory lesions involving cartilaginous structures, the cardiovascular system and some sensory organs. We report a patient with important tracheal stenosis, vestibulo cochlear dysfunction and polyarthritis. We present a literature review.
