“…Faot, Deprez, Vandamme, Camargos, Pinto, Wouters, van den Oord, Quirynen and Duyck [8] also reported similar ndings regarding the reduction of trabecular connectivity (Tb.Pf) during early bone healing periods in tibiae of rabbits treated with standard PRF membranes. The fact of PRF had a limited effect on bone repair can be associated with the signi cant decrease of release growth factors, such as TGF-ß1, and PDGF, after 3, 7, and 14 days, which does not seem to be long enough to stimulate the bone defect environment [41,42]. Moreover, the histological description of PRF group samples showed that bone healing occurs along the membrane but not inside the PRF clot.…”
