Abstract

Abstract Background: Von Willebrand Disease (VWD), the most common hereditary bleeding disorder, arises from quantitative or qualitative defect of VWF. There are only a few report of patient undergoing cardiac surgery with VWD. Case Presentation: A patient knows as type 1 VWD was diagnosed with Type A Aortic Dissection. He was treated prior to and after surgery with cryoprecipitate preventing coagulopathy in the absence of the von Willebrand/factor VIII concentrate. Conclusion: Despite the absence of von Willebrand/factor VIII concentrate in our country the use of cryoprecipitate allowed our patient to undergo the aortic surgery without any complication.
