| Summary |
"Von Willebrand Disease: Basic and Clinical Aspects Second Edition describes the important and complex role of von Willebrand factor in hemostasis and thrombosis. In addition to the current understanding of its molecular biology, this book gives particular focus to the association between genetic variants of von Willebrand factor and different von Willebrand disease phenotypes. It also reviews the important area of the obstetric and gynecological manifestations of von Willebrand disease, as well as the treatment of acute bleeding, GI bleeding, and how to prepare VWB patient for surgery. Many advances in agents are included in this updated edition as well as the wide topics such as VWF beyond Hemostasis, in Angiogenesis, and VWF/ADAMTS13 as risk factors of thrombosis. This valuable book is written by an international team of editors and contributors and is a valuable resource for hematologists in practice and in training, and specialists in thrombosis and hemostasis"-- Provided by publisher |
