Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma for Healing of an Oncologic Dehisced Wound
نویسندگان
چکیده
Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) consists of cytokines, growth factors, chemokines, and a fibrin scaffold derived from the patient’s blood. The mechanism of action for PRP gel is considered to be the molecular and cellular induction of normal wound healing responses similar to that seen with platelet activation.[1,2] There are multiple indications of PRP therapy, but there are few controlled trials to verify its efficacy. Here, we report an adolescent with an oncologic wound which was dehisced following radiation therapy.

Comparison between Conventional Mechanical Fixation and Use of Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) in Wound Beds Prior to Resurfacing with Split Thickness Skin Graft
BACKGROUND Platelet rich plasma is known for its hemostatic, adhesive and healing properties in view of the multiple growth factors released from the platelets to the site of wound. The primary objective of this study was to use autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) in wound beds for anchorage of skin grafts instead of conventional methods like sutures, staplers or glue. METHODS In a single ...
