A rare case of acquired von Willebrand syndrome type 2B: diagnosis, treatment, and underlying pathophysiology.

This AVWS with a 2B phenotype VWD was probably related to a monoclonal immunoglobulin G antibody causing a VWF conformational change, resulting in increased affinity to platelet glycoprotein-Ib. In the event of surgery or bleeding, treatment with vonicog alfa seems to be the best option for this patient.
