RESUMEN
Patients with acquired haemophilia A usually show widespread subcutaneous bleeding. We describe an 86-year-old man with acquired haemophilia A associated with prostate carcinoma, showing initial localised giant haematoma and subsequent widespread subcutaneous bleeding. A localised giant haematoma may present as a first and important sign of acquired haemophilia A.

Relapsing polychondritis is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by recurrent inflammation of cartilage in multiple sites of the body, including the auricles. Central nervous system involvement appears rare. We encountered a case of relapsing polychondritis with encephalitis that could be diagnosed by the unique appearance of the auricle with signal hyperintensity on diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging.
