Identification and optimisation of perioperative factors for patients with von Willebrand disease undergoing elective total hip and knee arthroplasty.

Von Willebrand disease stands as the most prevalent bleeding disorder seen in both medical and surgical practice.

Total joint arthroplasty emerges as a final option for managing such cases. Nevertheless, the existence of von Willebrand disease presents several challenges in this regard. This review aims to explore the perioperative strategies tailored for patients with von Willebrand disease undergoing elective total joint arthroplasty.
