Abstract

The article discusses a case of a 76-year-old male with relapsing polychondritis who developed immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) associated with Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PCP) and otitis media. The patient's symptoms worsened while tapering glucocorticoids, leading to pneumonia and bilateral otitis media. The case highlights the challenges in diagnosing and managing non-HIV-associated IRIS in immunocompromised patients with connective tissue diseases. The study emphasizes the importance of understanding IRIS to improve monitoring and intervention strategies for similar cases. [Extracted from the article]
