Abstract excerpt
Type 2M von Willebrand disease (VWD) refers to variants with decreased platelet-dependent function that is not associated with the loss of high molecular weight (HMW) von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers. This category includes the so-called "phenotype B" responsible for inexistent ristocetin-induced but normal botrocetin-induced binding of VWF to platelet glycoprotein lb. The missense mutation G1324S was...
