Acquired von Willebrand syndrome (AWS) is a rare and potentially life‐threatening bleeding disorder. AWS is primarily associated with lymphocyte‐related disorders (AWS‐LRD), such as lymphoma and IgM monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), and plasmocyte‐related disorders (AWS‐PRD), such as non‐IgM MGUS and myeloma. Symptomatic treatments are important to control and prevent bleeding, but AWS‐LRD and AWS‐PRD can only be cured by targeting the responsible clonal cell. No reviews exist on this specific subgroup of AWS.
