摘要

Platelet-rich plasma （PRP） therapy in orthopedics and sports medicine has seen an expansion in use since 2003. Theobjective of this study is to not only review evidence of clinical effectiveness but also to evaluate its security and detect any disparitybetween its use and its popularity. A prospective, descriptive study, which included 104 athletes were performed. Minor adverse effectswere recorded and these were self-limited. Although there is a lack of more detailed studies which compare other factors, PRP therapyhas been shown to have positive results in relation to certain lesions.
