A 3-week-old boy is brought to the pediatrician by his parents for a circumcision. The circumcision was uncomplicated; however, after a few hours, the diaper contained blood, and the bleeding has not subsided. A complete blood count was ordered, which was significant for a platelet count of 70,000/mm3. On peripheral blood smear, the following was noted (figure A). The prothrombin time was 12 seconds, partial thromboplastin time was 32 seconds, and bleeding time was 13 minutes. On platelet aggregation studies, there was no response with ristocetin. This result was not corrected with the addition of normal plasma. There was a normal aggregation response with the addition of ADP. Which of the following is most likely true of this patient's underlying disease?
