von Willebrand disease and von Willebrand factor

Haemophilia, 2022
AbstractSummaryProgress in both basic and translational research into the molecular mechanisms of VWD can be seen in multiple fields.Genetics of VWDIn the past several decades, knowledge of the underlying pathogenesis of von Willebrand disease (VWD) has increased tremendously, thanks in no small part to detailed genetic mapping of the von Willebrand ...

Von Willebrand disease

Pediatric Blood & Cancer, 2012
AbstractLong‐term prophylaxis is not as well known in Von Willebrand disease (VWD) as in hemophilia but attempts to evaluate prophylaxis scientifically in VWD have started. A few cohort studies have been reported. In an international effort the Von Willebrand disease prophylaxis network (VWD PN) has been formed to investigate the role of prophylaxis in

VON WILLEBRAND'S DISEASE

Annual Review of Medicine, 1997
▪ Abstract  von Willebrand's disease (vWD) arises from abnormalities in von Willebrand factor (vWF), an adhesive glycoprotein uniquely involved in key aspects of both primary and secondary hemostasis. The current classification distinguishes disorders arising from partial (type 1) or complete (type 3) deficiencies and from qualitative defects (type 2).

Von Willebrand Disease

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 2006
Von Willebrand disease (VWD), the most common inherited bleeding disorder, results from a deficiency of von Willebrand factor (VWF), a protein required for the normal adhesion of platelets to the site of injured endothelium and for preservation of factor VIII in the circulation. The prevalence of VWD has been reported to be as high as 1.3%. Among women

Von Willebrand's Disease

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1971
Von Willebrand's disease is a familial hemorrhagic condition. There is no single test for diagnosis, no agreement on the pathogenesis, and no evidence as to the genetics of inheritance. Seven abnormalities have been reported to characterize the disease: prolonged bleeding time, capillary abnormality, thrombocytopathy, reduced blood-clotting factor VIII

von Willebrand Disease and Pregnancy

Journal of Maternal-Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2000
von Willebrand Disease (vWD) affects approximately 1% of Americans and as many as 25% of women referred for evaluation of menorrhagia. We briefly review the history of vWD, its molecular defects, and diagnostic criteria for each subtype of disease. We also address obstetric management of the patient with vWD. While there is a significant increased risk

Diagnosis of von Willebrand Disease

Haemophilia, 1999
The haemorrhagic diathesis in von Willebrand disease (vWD) is caused by a quantitative deficiency or a qualitative defect in the von Willebrand factor (vWF) in plasma and/or platelets causing insufficient primary haemostasis. Since vWF binds and protects factor VIII (FVIII) towards random proteolysis, coagulation may also be impaired in patients with a

von Willebrand Disease

Hematology/Oncology Clinics of North America, 1990
The study of a wide variety of patients with vWD disorders has been extensive and intense over the last decade. In many instances the peculiarities of the expressions of the disorder have been critical in defining the underlying structure and function of vWF itself.

von Willebrand factor and von Willebrand disease.

[Rinsho ketsueki] The Japanese journal of clinical hematology, 2016
von Willebrand factor (VWF) has two major roles in hemostasis, as a form of molecular glue which functions in platelet plug formation and as a protective transporter for coagulation factor VIII (FVIII). VWF shows a multimeric chain structure composed of 270 kDa subunits containing binding domains for FVIII, platelet and collagens. Biosynthesis, storage,

Von Willebrand's disease

Postgraduate Medicine, 1980
Von Willebrand's disease is an autosomally transmitted disorder of hemostasis caused by a deficiency of or defect in the von Willebrand factor in the blood, a protein required for adherence of platelets to an injured vessel wall. The disease's principal manifestations are spontaneous bleeding from mucous membranes, excessive bleeding from wounds, and ...
