ABSTRACT
Peripartum replacement of factor VIII and von Willebrand factor is not usually required in type 1 von Willebrand disease, as the levels of endogenous factors tend to increase to within the normal range as a physiological change of pregnancy. However, there is wide heterogeneity of genotypes and phenotypes associated with type 1 von Willebrand disease. Here, we describe the anesthetic management of a parturient with type 1C von Willebrand disease, a subtype characterized by decreased plasma von Willebrand factor survival.
