5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To check the influence of injected platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the healing of medial retinaculum and the redaction in recurrent dislocation of the patella.
Detailed Description
Autologous platelet-rich matrices may aid in the healing of ligaments & tendons by promoting and accelerating tissue healing because of the release of growth factors including transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) from platelet alpha-granules.
