Lopes et al. note that altered von-Willebrand factor levels are not a constant feature reported in Cushing’s syndrome, and state it depends upon the polymorphism of the gene promoter, providing an example of haplotype 1 of the gene promoter conferring the greatest risk for elevated von-Willebrand factor levels by cortisol [16]. This evidence concerns the gene VWF and Cushing syndrome due to macronodular adrenal hyperplasia.
