ABSTRACT
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous infiltrate extracted from the patient's blood to address various medical treatments. Being autologous, it does not cause immunoreactivity in patients and is a non-invasive procedure. Evidence suggests that PRP accelerates tissue regeneration by activating osteoblastic genes with mesenchymal stem cells, thus promoting bone regeneration and consolidation. This is why its results are being studied in cases of delayed bone fractures as a complement to immobilization, speeding up the bone regeneration process and improving the quality of life for patients.
