A recently presented method for the study of evolving self-gravitating relativistic spheres is applied to the description of the evolution of relativistic polytropes. Two different definitions of relativistic polytrope, yielding the same Newtonian limit, are considered. Some examples are explicitly worked out, describing collapsing polytropes and bringing out the differences between both types of polytropes.
