Intraindividual variability of von Willebrand factor and the need for repeated testing [PDF]
Background: Diagnosing von Willebrand disease (VWD) is complicated by intraindividual variation of von Willebrand factor (VWF). Current guidelines define VWD as VWF antigen (VWF:Ag) or VWF activity of

Considerable progress has been made in characterizing the specific molecular defects responsible for the heterogeneous disorder known as von Willebrand disease (VWD). A large number of molecular defects have been identified and precise characterization may now be possible in the majority of type 2A, type 2B, type 2N, and potentially also type 3 VWD ...
