  • Title: Relapsing polychondritis and spondyloarthropathies.
    Author: Pazirandeh M, Ziran BH, Khandelwal BK, Reynolds TL, Khan MA.
    Journal: J Rheumatol; 1988 Apr; 15(4):630-2. PubMed ID: 3397972.
    Abstract:
    We report 3 patients with polychondritis who also developed spondyloarthropathy: one B27 negative patient with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) who also exhibited uveitis and optic neuritis; a B27 positive patient with AS who developed acute aortic insufficiency and Crohn's disease; and a B27 negative patient with Reiter's syndrome. The possible association of spondyloarthropathy with relapsing polychondritis is discussed.
