Case report demonstrates airway lesion resolution with prednisolone and cyclophosphamide in relapsing polychondritis, highlighting the need for serial airway evaluation.
A 59‐year‐old man presented with sore throat and cough, and chest computed tomography and bronchoscopy revealed airway stenosis. Four McAdam's criteria supported the diagnosis of relapsing polychondritis. High‐dose prednisolone and cyclophosphamide improved symptoms and airway lesions, highlighting the importance of early recognition and serial airway evaluation.
