Overview
The prevalence of von Willebrand’s disease is 0.6 to 1.3%.[1][2] It is estimated that the referral prevalence of von Willebrand’s disease is approximately 1 case per 10,000 persons.[3] The actual abnormality (which does not necessarily lead to disease) occurs in 0.9-3% of the population. The symptoms of VWD is disproportionately more common in women of child-bearing age.[1] Although autosomal inheritance pattern of disease lead to an equal distribution of male patients and female patients, the disease has female predominance whose bleeding tendency shows during menstruation.[4][5] There is no racial predilection to vWD however, it may be more severe or apparent in people with blood type O.[6]
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
The prevalence of von Willebrand’s disease is 0.6 to 1.3%.[1][2] It is estimated that the referral prevalence of von Willebrand’s disease is approximately 1 case per 10,000 persons.[3]
The actual abnormality (which does not necessarily lead to disease) occurs in 0.9-3% of the population.
Age
The symptoms of VWD is disproportionately more common in women of child-bearing age.[1]
Gender
Although autosomal inheritance pattern of disease lead to an equal distribution of male patients and female patients, the disease has female predominance whose bleeding tendency shows during menstruation.[4][5]
Race
There is no racial predilection to vWD however, it may be more severe or apparent in people with blood type O.[6]
