von Willebrand Disease
Type 2
Qualitative defects in function
• Type 2M
Decreased binding to GP1
• Type 2N (Normandy)
Normal amount of VWF
(Ag & Rcof normal)
Decreased binding to FVIII = low FVIII
? Misdiagnosed as hemophilia A
A Short Case # 1
• MR is a 10 y/o Caucasian male scheduledfor a tonsillectomy
• HX of excess bleeding beginning severalhours after recent tooth extraction. Epistaxishas been rare and of short duration. Someminor bruising in the past – usually aftersports. No recent medications.
Case #1 Initial Lab Values
Pre-op lab values revealed:
• Prolonged PTT = 45 sec (24-38)
• Normal PT = 11.5 sec (10-13)
• CBC normal except for a plt ct of 95,000

Hemophilia Treatment
• Prevent bleeding !
• Consider prophylactic FVIII or IX (2-3 x wk)
• Treat bleeding early - replace the missingfactor VIII or IX (given IV)
• Monitor for complications such as orthopedic,viral and inhibitors

Hemophilia Prophylaxis
• IV Prophylaxisgiven 2 to 3 times aweek can preventmost bleedingepisodes
• Regimen basedmostly on half-life
Hemophilia Treatment
• Donor derived factorconcentrates in the70’s and 80’s led toviral complications
• HBV, HCV, HIV

Hemophilia Treatment
• Safer plasma derived concentrates are now used
• Newer products using recombinant technology
• New products with a longer half-life
• DDAVP used in mild hemophilia A

• Mammalian cells are provided with geneticinformation to produce a target protein.
• Cell lines may include CHO, BHK, HEK …
Hemophilia Inhibitors
• Antibodies “inhibitors” develop in ~ 20%of persons with severe hemophilia A
• Antibodies neutralize the infusedcoagulation factor
• May require an “activated” concentrate tocontrol bleeding
