Overview
There are no established risk factors for Von Willebrand disease however, individual's ABO blood group can influence presentation and pathology of vWD. Those individuals with blood group O have a lower mean level than individuals with other blood groups. Common risk factors in the development of Von Willebrand disease include positive family history and consanguineous relationships. Less common risk factors in the development of Von Willebrand disease include lymphoproliferative disorders and aortic stenosis.
