Abstract
Evaluation of the effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy on the healing of flexor tendon injuries of the hand.
Highlights
Platelet rich plasma has been used to enhance healing after surgical tendon repair
In an effort to improve tendon and ligament (T/L) healing. Both in vitro and in vivo studies have expanded the understanding of T/L biology while demonstrating the utility of tissue engineering in etinshsuaensc.ingNevtheerthehleesasli,ngno oftissmuuesceunlogsinkeeleerteadl
Preparation of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) Blood was drawn from patient from the anticubital vein (10 ml for every cut tendon) with 10 ml syringe that contained 1ml sodium citrate the blood was centrifuged for 15 minutes at 500 rpm and collect supernatant 2-3 ml (PRP) into 5ml syringe using desktop centrifuge
Summary
Decades of research on tendon and ligament (T/L) injuries have yielded extensive knowledge of the mechanical and biological properties of these dense connective tissues, translating into advances in surgical and conservative therapies that can prevent major disability. The principal elements of tissue engineering – cells, scaffolds, and bioactive molecules – have been explored - in an effort to improve T/L healing. Both in vitro and in vivo studies have expanded the understanding of T/L biology while demonstrating the utility of tissue engineering in etinshsuaensc.ingNevtheerthehleesasli,ngno oftissmuuesceunlogsinkeeleerteadl - construct far has achieved complete regeneration of T/L. Aim of the work Evaluation of the effect of platelets rich plasma on the healing of flexor tendons of the hand
