Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is a common inherited bleeding disorder, however the diagnosis can be complicated by a subjective bleeding history and issues with some current von Willebrand factor (VWF) laboratory assays. In the Zimmerman Program, we sought to determine how often a type 1 diagnosis was based on a single low VWF ristocetin cofactor (VWF:RCo) level resulting from the common genetic variant p.D1472H or an isolated assay issue, if that low value was corroborated by the VWF glycoprotein‐IbM (VWF:GPIbM) assay, and if retesting confirmed original levels. New patients being evaluated for bleeding were consented. Analysis included VWF sequencing, bleeding scores, and comparisons of local VWF antigen (VWF:Ag) and VWF:RCo to central VWF:Ag and VWF:GPIbM. A total of 18% of VWD subjects had a low local VWF:RCo, but normal VWF:Ag and normal central testing including VWF:GPIbM. Seventy percent of the low VWF:RCo cohort had no pathogenic VWF variants; however, 33% carried p.D1472H. Low VWF:RCo subjects with follow‐up local testing within 2 years showed those with p.D1472H continued to have low VWF:RCo and VWF:RCo/VWF:Ag ratio with normal VWF:GPIbM. Subjects without p.D1472H had an increase mean VWF:RCo, resulting in 59% with normal levels on repeat testing. The diagnosis of VWD based on a single low VWF:RCo but normal VWF:Ag, was often attributed to p.D1472H or variability in VWF:RCo that was eliminated with VWF:GPIbM. Our study suggests that using VWF:RCo alone for diagnostic purposes may be insufficient while repeat VWF:RCo or VWF:GPIbM testing can be valuable in establishing a VWD diagnosis.
