Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a biological therapy that uses the patient's own blood to promote healing and tissue regeneration in osteoarticular injuries. PRP is obtained by taking blood from the patient and then processing it to concentrate platelets, which contain growth factors and proteins that are important for the tissue repair process.

 

PRP has gained popularity as a treatment for various osteoarticular injuries, including:

 

• Soft tissue injuries: It can be used for the treatment of tendinitis, tendinosis, muscle and ligament injuries.

• Articular Cartilage Lesions: Used in cases of focal articular cartilage lesions, such as chondral and osteochondral lesions.

• Osteoarthritis: In some cases, PRP has been applied for the treatment of osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease.
