    Author: Spraggs PD, Tostevin PM, Howard DJ.
    Journal: Laryngoscope; 1997 Jul; 107(7):936-41. PubMed ID: 9217135.
    Abstract:
    Relapsing polychondritis is a rare multisystem disorder of unknown etiology characterized by recurrent inflammation and degeneration of cartilage and connective tissue. Laryngotracheobronchial complications are the most severe manifestations of the disease and present the most challenging management decisions. We present four cases of relapsing polychondritis with laryngotracheobronchial manifestations that illustrate the clinical features and review the treatment options.
