Abstract

A case of relapsing polychondritis (RP) is reported. A 44-year-old male with rubor in the bilateral auricles, congested bulbar conjunctivae, vertigo, and left hearing impairment was treated with prednisolone, high-dose pulse methylprednisolone, and cyclosporin A (CsA) . C orticosteroid therapy alone could not prevent flare-up of the symptoms when dose was decreased. Combining corticosteroids with CsA improved the symptoms significantly, and steroids were successfuly reduced to a maintenance dose.
