introduction: the healing process after surgery is a challenging issue for surgeons. various materials and techniques have been developed to facilitate this process and reduce its period. fibrin adhesives are often used in cardiothoracic and vascular surgery to seal diffuse microvascular bleeding and in general and plastic surgery to seal wound borders. this case report and literature review wi...

conclusions it seems that applying prp is an effective therapeutic approach for wound healing, and faster wound healing is expected due to the presence of more platelets and growth factors. results at the end of study, the prp group showed a greater reduction in the edema ecchymosed discharge approximation (reeda) score compared to the control group (85.5% reduction in the prp group; 72% in the...

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 cen...

objective- this study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of using platelet rich fibrin membrane as a novel on-lay patching biomaterial in canine esophagotomy and its effects on esophageal wound healing. design- experimental study. animals- eight adult mixed breed dogs of both sexes equally allocated to control and treatment groups. procedures- longitudinal incisions measuring 3 cm were made in t...

background: plantar fasciitis (pf) is a common foot complaint, affects both active sportsmen and physically inactive middle age group. it is believed that pf results from degenerative changes rather than inflammation. platelet?rich plasma (prp) therapy has been introduced as an alternative therapy for pf. this study is aimed to systematically review to the effectiveness and relevant factors of ...

patients and methods seventy patients with chronic partial supraspinatus tears in magnetic resonance imaging were randomized into two groups; prp (n = 35) and pt (n = 35). before the treatment, at the end of the treatment and at the 12th month after the end of the treatment, range of motion (rom), visual analog scale (vas) for pain, disabilities of arm, shoulder and hand questionnaire (dash), n...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical effects of intraarticular platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections in a small group of patients with primary and secondary osteoarthritis. Most of the current treatments for osteoarthritis are palliative and attack the symptoms rather than influencing the biochemical environment of the joint. Autologous platelet-rich plasma has emerged as a treatment option for t...
