Abstract
We report a case of relapsing polychondritis with focal sensorimotor s eizures, aseptic meningitis, and migratory leptomeningeal enhancement on contrast MRI. These abnormalities on imaging studies correlated acc urately with laterality of the patient's seizures, facilitating early aggressive management of his neurologic symptoms.
