    We report a 38-year-old woman who presented with a subdural hematoma after minor facial trauma in a stressful situation. The laboratory data showed a subnormal platelet count (166×10 /L), VWF:RCo activity was 45% and VWF:Ag was 53% with a VWF:RCo/VWF Ag ratio of 0.79. Hemostasis results and gene analysis revealed von Willebrand disease (VWD) type 2B with normal multimers and a novel mutation c.4136 G>T (R1379L), which appears to be a novel mutation of VWD type 2B that is mainly diagnosed with hypersensitivity to ristocetin and an hyperfixation of platelet Willebrand to a recombinant Gp1b. SIMILAR CASES PUBLISHED: None.
