Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is almost always inherited. Inherited means that the disorder is passed from parents to children though genes. You can inherit type 1 or type 2 VWD if only one of your parents passes the gene on to you. You usually inherit type 3 VWD only if both of your parents pass the gene on to you.
Background. Von Willebrand disease (vWD) is a common, inherited, genetically and clinically heterogeneous hemorrhagic disorder caused by a deficiency or dysfunction of the protein termed von Willebrand factor (vWF).Consequently, defective vWF interaction between platelets and the vessel wall impairs primary hemostasis.ackground.
