Outline of Final Research Achievements

Acquired von Willebrand Syndrome (AvWS) has a unique bleeding symptom, that has not been observed in other hemostatic disorders. This study had a strategic approach to establish AvWS animal models and aimed to unveil the specific mechanisms underlining the development of AvWS bleeding diathesis. Our recent clinical observation indicated that activation of extrinsic pathways had some potential in controlling bleeding in patients with AvWS. We therefore observed the unique pattern of thrombin generation assay and ROTEM (Rotation thromboelastgram) assays to enable the novel therapeutic approach to this disorder.
