Von Willebrand Disease (VWD) is an autosomal hereditary bleeding disorder defined by decreased activity of Von Willebrand Factor in the blood. It may be secondary to a quantitative or qualitative defect. This case report addresses a patient with VWD and obesity who underwent gastroplasty at a Hospital in Goiânia. With a hematologist’s recommendation for the use of factor VIII 2500 IU, to be performed 1 hour before the surgical procedure, with a subsequent maintenance dose for 5 days. In the operating room, total intravenous anesthesia was performed, with Propofol and Remifentanil. The procedure was uneventful and after 24 hours of hospital stay, the patient was discharged by the team.
