Management of traumatic hyphema.
Hyphema (blood in the anterior chamber) can occur after blunt or lacerating trauma, after intraocular surgery, spontaneously (e.g., in conditions such as rubeosis iridis, juvenile xanthogranuloma, iris melanoma, myotonic dystrophy, keratouveitis (e.g., herpes zoster), leukemia, hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, and in association with the use of substances that alter platelet or thrombin func...
متن کاملPolymorphism in the promoter region of von Willebrand factor gene and von Willebrand disease type 1
The -1185A/G polymorphism in the 5’-regulatory region of the von Willebrand factor (VWF) gene was associated with VWF plasma levels in a normal population. This study was undertaken to evaluate whether there is a relationship between this polymorphism and type 1 von Willebrand disease (VWD), a disorder characterized by a quantitative deficiency of VWF. The association between this polymorphism ...
متن کاملMultiple Sclerosis Diagnosed in a Woman With Von-Willebrand Disease: A Case Report
Background: Von-Willebrand Disease (VWD) is the most common inherited bleeding disorder with an autosomal inheritance pattern. Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disease, causing neurodegeneration and demyelination of the central nervous system through autoimmune mechanisms, and is a major cause of non-traumatic disabilities in youths. Some studies have shown the higher plasma activity o...
متن کاملDecreased clearance of von Willebrand factor in a patient with type 2B von Willebrand disease following development of immune thrombocytopenia.
We report a case of concurrent type 2B von Willebrand disease (VWD) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). The patient had characteristic loss of von Willebrand factor (VWF) high molecular weight multimers (HMWM) but a normal platelet count in the initial 8 years after diagnosis of type 2B VWD. When he developed severe thrombocytopenia, however, both his VWD indices and VWF HMWM normalized. As his ...
متن کاملFounder von Willebrand factor haplotype associated with type 1 von Willebrand disease.
To date, no dominant mutation has been identified in a significant proportion of patients with type 1 von Willebrand disease (VWD). In this study, we examined 70 families as part of the Canadian Type 1 VWD Study. The entire VWF gene was sequenced for 1 index case, revealing 2 sequence variations: intron 30 (5312-19A>C) and exon 28 at Tyr1584Cys (4751A>G). The Tyr1584Cys variation was identified...
