Co-inheritance of mild hemophilia A and heterozygosity for type 2N von Willebrand disease: a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge.

Hemophilia A and von Willebrand disease are the two most common inherited bleeding disorders. Despite their frequency, however, there are very few reports of co-inheritance of the two disorders. We present the first report of a patient with mild hemophilia A and heterozygosity for type 2N von Willebrand disease (VWD). We discuss the patient's phenotype and highlight the diagnostic and therapeutic challenges caused by this co-inheritance.
