N2 - Von Willebrand disease type 2M "Vicenza" (VWD 2M V) is characterised by autosomal dominant inheritance, low von Willebrand factor (VWF) and the presence of "supranormal" multimers in plasma. This specific phenotype has been described in Italian and recently also in German patients. The molecular defect is linked to the VWF gene. However, no specific mutations have been identified until now. We analysed the complete coding region and adjacent intron sequences of the VWF gene in Italian families in comparison to German families with VWD 2M V by a PCR-based mutation screening, combined with SSC- and heteroduplex-analysis of exons 2 through 52, followed by direct sequencing.
