| Core Tip |
Relapsing polychondritis is a rare immune-mediated systemic disease characterized by recurrent inflammation of cartilage and proteoglycan rich tissues. In approximately 10% of patients with tracheobronchial cartilage ring involvement, characterized by cough and shortness of breath, regular bronchodilator treatment has very little effect. Deterioration of lung function occurs soon thereafter, with pulmonary function tests showing obstructive ventilation dysfunction. In this patient, the bronchial cartilage rings were undistinguishable on fiberoptic bronchoscopy, and active paratracheal inflammation revealed by positron emission tomography/computed tomography scans helped confirm the diagnosis. |
