- Abstract
Relapsing polychondritis is a rare inflammatory disorder causing recurrent inflammatory reactions in the cartilaginous structures. It often worsens as prednisone is tapered. We describe 3 biopsy proven patients with relapsing polychondritis in whom methotrexate was useful as a steroid sparing agent in the management of auricular chondritis.
