This case-based quiz reviews von Willebrand factor (vWF), including synthesis and function of vWF and the diagnosis and treatment of von Willebrand disease (vWD), as well as the role vWF plays in hemostasis.

Editor’s Note 9/3/19: An earlier version of this quiz incorrectly stated "During the propagation phase of coagulation, factor VII is cleaved from vWF.” The quiz has been corrected.
