| Summary: | Numerous non-surgical and surgical procedures have been proposed to treat injuries and diseases of the large joints. Any small bone and cartilage defect can progress quite quickly and cause osteoarthritis to develop in many joints without proper treatment. Surgical procedures include tunnelization, microfracturing, mosaic autochondroplasty, etc. The joint condition can be improved by using exogenous growth factors. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is one of the remedies that contain regeneration-stimulating factors. The article discusses the positive effects of PRP not only on chondrogenesis in the area of hyaline cartilage defects, but also on osteoarthritis. There is a need to further clarify the mechanism of action of plasma and the exact concentration of the preparation. |
