Background Information for von Willebrand Disease, Type 2N (VWF) Sequencing: Characteristics: Mucocutaneous bleeding after brushing or flossing teeth, unexplained bruising, prolonged repeated nosebleeds, menorrhagia, and prolonged bleeding following childbirth, trauma or surgery. Symptoms of type 2N are similar to mild hemophilia A. Incidence: Approximately 1 in 100 to 1 in 1000 individuals. Inheritance: Autosomal recessive. Cause: Pathogenic VWF mutations. Clinical Sensitivity: Unknown for VWD type 2N. Methodology: Bidirectional sequencing of VWF exons4, 9, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 24, 25, and 27 and the corresponding intron-exon boundaries. Analytical Sensitivity and Specificity: 99 percent. Limitations: Diagnostic errors can occur due to rare sequence variations. Regulatory region mutations, deep intronic mutations, and large deletion/duplications will not be detected. Mutations lying outside of VWF exons 4, 9, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 24, 25, and 27 will not be evaluated.
