Use of platelet-rich plasma in orthopaedics and traumatology

Abstract: Platelet rich plasma (PRP) is a concentration of blood platelets suspended in a small volume of plasma, and it can be obtained by centrifuging the patient's whole blood. It is used in many fields of medicine, including orthopaedics and traumatology. The range of indications for PRP therapy has been extended. The mechanism of action of PRP is based on function of growth factors. The application of PRP can be considered for tendinopathy and enthesopathy treatment, osteoarthritis treatment, muscle and ligament in… Show more

“…TGF-β, PDGF, VEGF, EGF, and IGF-1 are associated with the healing cascade leading to cellular chemotaxis, promotion of angiogenesis, collagen matrix production, cell proliferation, and stimulation of bone tissue regeneration. Platelet-rich plasma clots also stimulate DNA synthesis, extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis, and mRNA expression of biglycan and decorin [95,107,[119][120][121][122]. PRP is made from patient's own blood.…”
