Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Type 3 VWD results in extremely low levels of von Willebrand factor (vWf), and bleeding is so excessive that the infant or child may first be thought to have hemophilia. For both types 1 and 2, affected individuals may not be diagnosed during childhood because symptoms are not viewed as serious, others in the family have the same problems and have learned how to manage them, or too few serious bleeding episodes have occurred in the younger years. Currently, no type 4 VWD has been identified.
