Gastrointestinal angiodysplasia and bleeding in von Willebrand disease.
Von Willebrand disease (VWD), the most common genetic bleeding disorder, is characterised by a quantitative or qualitative defect of von Willebrand factor (VWF). Patients with VWD suffer from mucocutaneous bleeding, of severity usually proportional to the degree of VWF defect. In particular, gastrointestinal bleeding associated with angiodysplasia is often a severe symptom of difficult manageme...
متن کاملVon Willebrand Factor, Angiodysplasia and Angiogenesis
The large multimeric glycoprotein Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is best known for its role in haemostasis; however in recent years other functions of VWF have been identified, indicating that this protein is involved in multiple vascular processes. We recently described a new role for VWF in controlling angiogenesis, which may have significant clinical implications for patients with Von Willebran...

The authors’ conclusion that it should be considered for screening patients requires further consideration and study but conceivably, this assay should improve the future of VWD diagnosis.

متن کاملVon Willebrand disease
There are three major types of VWD disease. Type 1, the most frequent form, is characterized by a partial quantitative deficiency in von Willebrand factor (VWF). Type 2 is a qualitative deficiency, and Type 3 is a virtually complete deficiency. Type 2 VWD is divided into four subtypes. Type 2A includes variants with decreased platelet adhesion caused by a selective deficiency in high-molecular ...
