Ann Rheum Dis 2003;62:81–82 D Sweet first described an acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis in 1964 characterised by acute onset, fever, Rleucocytosis, and erythematous plaques.1 Skin biopsy specimens show infiltrates consisting of mononuclear cells and neutrophils with leucocytoclasis, but without signs of vasculi- tis. Sweet’s syndrome is frequently associated with solid malig- nancies or haemoproliferative disorders, but associations with chronic autoimmune connective tissue disorders have also been reported.2 The aetiology of Sweet’s syndrome is unknown, but evidence suggests that an immunological reaction of unknown specificity is the underlying mechanism.

  • Immunopathologic Studies in Relapsing Polychondritis
    Immunopathologic Studies in Relapsing Polychondritis Jerome H. Herman, Marie V. Dennis J Clin Invest. 1973;52(3):549-558. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI107215. Research Article Serial studies have been performed on three patients with relapsing polychondritis in an attempt to define a potential immunopathologic role for degradation constituents of cartilage in the causation and/or perpetuation of the inflammation observed. Crude proteoglycan preparations derived by disruptive and differential centrifugation techniques from human costal cartilage, intact chondrocytes grown as monolayers, their homogenates and products of synthesis provided antigenic material for investigation. Circulating antibody to such antigens could not be detected by immunodiffusion, hemagglutination, immunofluorescence or complement mediated chondrocyte cytotoxicity as assessed by 51Cr release. Similarly, radiolabeled incorporation studies attempting to detect de novo synthesis of such antibody by circulating peripheral blood lymphocytes as assessed by radioimmunodiffusion, immune absorption to neuraminidase treated and untreated chondrocytes and immune coprecipitation were negative. Delayed hypersensitivity to cartilage constituents was studied by peripheral lymphocyte transformation employing [3H]thymidine incorporation and the release of macrophage aggregation factor. Positive results were obtained which correlated with periods of overt disease activity. Similar results were observed in patients with classical rheumatoid arthritis manifesting destructive articular changes. This study suggests that cartilage antigenic components may facilitate perpetuation of cartilage inflammation by cellular immune mechanisms.

  • Relapsing Polychondritis
    Relapsing polychondritis Author: Professor Alexandros A. Drosos1 Creation Date: November 2001 Update: October 2004 Scientific Editor: Professor Haralampos M. Moutsopoulos 1Department of Internal Medicine, Section of Rheumatology, Medical School, University of Ioannina, 451 10 Ioannina, GREECE. [email protected] Abstract Keywords Disease name and synonyms Diagnostic criteria / Definition Differential diagnosis Prevalence Laboratory findings Prognosis Management Etiology Genetic findings Diagnostic methods Genetic counseling Unresolved questions References Abstract Relapsing polychondritis (RP) is a multisystem inflammatory disease of unknown etiology affecting the cartilage. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of inflammation affecting the cartilaginous structures, resulting in tissue damage and tissue destruction. All types of cartilage may be involved. Chondritis of auricular, nasal, tracheal cartilage predominates in this disease, suggesting response to tissue-specific antigens such as collagen II and cartilage matrix protein (matrillin-1). The patients present with a wide spectrum of clinical symptoms and signs that often raise major diagnostic dilemmas. In about one third of patients, RP is associated with vasculitis and autoimmune rheumatic diseases. The most commonly reported types of vasculitis range from isolated cutaneous leucocytoclastic vasculitis to systemic polyangiitis. Vessels of all sizes may be affected and large-vessel vasculitis is a well-recognized and potentially fatal complication. The second most commonly associated disorder is autoimmune rheumatic diseases mainly rheumatoid arthritis and systemic lupus erythematosus . Other disorders associated with RP are hematological malignant diseases, gastrointestinal disorders, endocrine diseases and others. Relapsing polychondritis is generally a progressive disease. The majority of the patients experience intermittent or fluctuant inflammatory manifestations. In Rochester (Minnesota), the estimated annual incidence rate was 3.5/million.

In rheumatology, RDs are heterogeneous and lack systemic classifcation. Clinical courses involve a variety of diverse symptoms, and patients may be misdiagnosed and not receive appropriate treatment. The objec- tive of this study was to identify and classify some of the most important RDs in rheumatology. We also attempted to determine their combined prevalence to more precisely defne this area of rheumatology and increase awareness of RDs in healthcare systems. We conducted a comprehensive literature search and analyzed each disease for the speci- fed criteria, such as clinical symptoms, treatment regimens, prognoses, and point prevalences. If no epidemiological data were available, we estimated the prevalence as 1/1,000,000. The total point prevalence for all RDs in rheumatol- ogy was estimated as the sum of the individually determined prevalences. Results: A total of 76 syndromes and diseases were identifed, including vasculitis/vasculopathy (n 15), arthritis/ arthropathy (n 11), autoinfammatory syndromes (n 11), myositis (n 9), bone disorders (n 11),= connective tissue diseases =(n 8), overgrowth syndromes (n 3), =and others (n 8).= Out of the 76 diseases,= 61 (80%) are clas- sifed as chronic, with= a remitting-relapsing course= in 27 cases (35%)= upon adequate treatment.
