High-shear thrombus impairment in type 2A/2B VWD may elevate bleeding risk; leaves open VWF multimer replacement as targeted therapy.
Does high shear rate impair mural thrombus generation in whole blood from patients with type 2A and 2B von Willebrand disease compared to healthy controls?
The study confirms impaired spatial thrombus growth in type 2B VWD under high shear conditions, highlighting the critical role of larger VWF multimers.
Sugimoto et al. (2003) studied this question.
