Platelet rich plasma in regenerative tendon repair mechanobiological interactions and clinical application

Abstract:

Tendon injury prevalence in both athletic and occupational settings is on the increase. Tendon healing properties are poor, despite the complex biological process triggered by the injury, which makes those injuries incapacitating for months. A significant proportion of these injuries remain difficult to treat, and many patients suffer from decreased performance and longstanding sequelae.
