Submucosal injection of platelet-rich plasma in endoscopic resection of large sessile lesions

Abstract: AIMTo prospectively evaluate the efficacy of submucosal injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on endoscopic resection of large sessile lesions.METHODSEleven patients were submitted to endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) with prior injection of PRP, obtained at the time of endoscopy. Patients were followed during 1 mo. The incidence of adverse events (delayed bleeding or perforation) and the percentage of mucosal healing (MHR) after 4 wk were registered.RESULTSEMR was performed in 11 lesions (46.4 mm ± 4 mm, r… Show more

“…For instance, cold snare polypectomy is associated with an almost zero risk of post-procedure bleeding, yet not all large polyps may be resectable with a cold snare, and a greater risk of recurrence is a concern [24]. Other bleeding prevention methods are being investigated, including application of hemospray to the resection site (NCT01368731) or using a platelet-rich plasma for submucosal injection [25].…”

“…Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), also known as autologous platelet gel, has demonstrated efficacy as submucosal injection before endoscopic mucosal resection of LNPCLs2 or local injection after endoscopic submucosal dissection 3. Shielding technique with PRP has proven favorable biological activities in preclinical endoscopic resection models 4…”
