Özet
PRP is the acronym for p latelet- r ich p lasma. PRP is basically the process of enrichment of platelets, having the capability of healing by their granule constituents. The expected utility of PRP is its application to the area of lesion as a concentration of growth factors found in alpha granules. PRP has gained growing attention in the fields of soft tissue and wound healing, fracture treatment, arthritis, tissue engineering, and angiogenesis. Theoretically, it seems reasonable to expect favorable results from the application of platelets, containing growth and mitogenic factors, to the area of lesion. But larger controlled prospective studies are needed for clear assessments and classical approaches about this issue.
