简要总结
Repair of the rotator cuff has high rates of re-rupture (20-54%), despite good clinical results. Several ways to improve the healing tendon-bone are currently studied, among them the most used is the use of growth factors. The platelet-rich plasma is a source of several growth factors, and is already used in various orthopedic procedures. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of platelet-rich plasma in improve tendon-bone healing in arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs.
详细描述
Rotator cuff repair(RCR) is a procedure widely performed in the shoulder surgery, given the high prevalence of this type of injury in the population. Regardless of the approach employed, the procedure consists of the rehabilitation of the rotator cuff to his bed. Despite the clinical results are highly satisfactory (success rate around 85%), studies using ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a rate of re-rupture after surgery 20 to 54%. These levels of re-injury suggest a sub-optimal healing in the bone-tendon interface.
Attempts to improve the healing in place of the RMR has been extensively studied in the orthopedic literature. One is the use of growth factors (GF), cytokines play an important role in chemotaxis, cell proliferation and differentiation, as well as the synthesis of extracellular matrix, and that theoretically could have beneficial role in tissue repair.
The Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) is one of the most studied sources of GF. It is easy to prepare and non-immunogenic (is done with the patient's own blood), and has the further advantage of the presence of several FC (including PDGF, bFGF, TGF-B, VEGF, EGF, CTGF and IGF). This fact is important because the disease have different effects on different receivers during the various stages of healing.
The use of PRP in bone healing has been evaluated in several studies with conflicting results. There are preclinical studies demonstrating the beneficial effect of PRP on tendon and ligament repair. However, there is no published papers showing the effectiveness of the use of PRP on tendon-bone interface.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of PRP in enhancing the healing tendon-bone repair after injury of RC.
