Acquired von Willebrand Syndrome in a Patient with Multiple Comorbidities, Including MALT Lymphoma with IgA Monoclonal Gammopathy and Hyperviscosity Syndrome.
Internal Medicine 2022 July 23
Acquired von Willebrand syndrome (aVWS) develops with various underlying diseases. We herein report an individual with aVWS associated with mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma in the lungs complicated by hyperviscosity syndrome, Sjögren's syndrome, and hypothyroidism. This patient developed life-threatening hemorrhaging during a lung biopsy despite transfusion of concentrate of plasma-derived VWF/factor VIII. The use of rituximab caused remission of the lymphoma and hyperviscosity syndrome in parallel with the resolution of aVWS. Thus, lymphoma and hyperviscosity might result in aVWS. Invasive procedures with a risk of bleeding should be avoided in individuals with aVWS.
