Abstract

Relapsing polychondritis is an uncommon disease associated with inflammation in cartilaginous tissues throughout the body, particularly affecting the cartilaginous structures of ears, nose, joints, and respiratory tract. Several autoimmune diseases, including vasculitis, are associated with the concurrent relapsing polychondritis. However, ankylosing spondylitis primarily affecting the sacroiliac joints and spine is rare in patients with relapsing polychondritis. We report on a 54-year-old man with concurrently relapsing polychondritis and ankylosing spondylitis. (J Rheum Dis 2015;22:56-60)

Keywords Relapsing polychondritis, Ankylosing spondylitis

COVER PICTURE
Ancestry-driven pathways for SLE-risk SNP-associated genes. The ancestry-driven key signaling pathways in Asians, Europeans, and African Americans were analyzed by enrichr (https://maayanlab.cloud/Enrichr/#libraries) using non-HLA SNP-associated genes. SLE: systemic lupus erythematosus, SNP: single-nucleotide polymorphism, JAK–STAT: janus kinase–signal transducers and activators of transcription, IFN: interferon gamma.
