Abstract :- Patients with congenital bleeding disorders now enjoy prolonged life expectancy secondary to better availability of comprehensive health care and treatment options. However this comes at a price of increase in age related co morbidities. There is limited data from the large observational studies on the prevalence rate of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease in this bleeding population. More so, there is little to none available data on the management of these age related diseases. In this article, we attempted to review the management of cerebrovascular accidents among the patients with Von Willebrand disease at our institution.
Key Words:- Cardiovascualr, cerebrovascular accident, VonWillebrand disease(VWF).
