ABSTRACT
Platelet-rich plasma is a blood product concentrate obtained
by centrifugation of whole blood that is characterized by a high
concentration of platelets (4 to 6 times their normal values). The
high concentration of trophic factors contained in the granules
of platelets, have led to suggest that the application of plateletrich
plasma can help to stimulate or accelerate the repair or
regeneration of a number of tissues. Since their first application
in the treatment of skin ulcers in 1980, a considerable number of
novel applications in different fields of medicine have emerged
(Ophthalmology, Otorhinolaryngology, Maxillofacial Surgery
surgical wounds, musculoskeletal disorders, burns, Esthetic
Surgery, repair of peripheral nerves, etc.), some of these
applications with clearly positive or very promising results. Despite
the large amount of experimental and clinical literature about the
usefulness of platelet-rich plasma in different areas of regenerative
medicine, there are few therapeutic indications in which it is fully
demonstrated its effectiveness. This fact highlights the importance
of carry out methodologically appropriate clinical trials in the near
future, in order to improve the evidence level of platelet-rich plasma
treatment. The
purpose of this article is to perform an update and
critical review about the biological basis of platelet-rich plasma, to
review indications for which there is more scientific support on its
use, and finally to describe their new indications that are currently
under research.
