 Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is uncommon disease consisting of inflammation of the eyes, inner ear, cardiovascular system, and cartilaginous portions of the joints, respiratory tract, and external ear.

 Two cases of RP were reported. Case 1 was a 49-year-old female who complained of the auricular deformity and stridor. X-ray of the larynxand the trachea showed the narrowing of the trachea below the vocal cords. Microscopic examination of the cartilage in tragus demonstrated typical RP patterns. Case 2 was a 31-year-old male who was diagnosed as having RP by auricular chondritis, conjunctivitis, and swelling and tenderness of the sterno-cleido-costal joints. Remarkable improvement by corticosteroid was seen in both cases.
