The treatment of degenerative joint and periarticular conditions or post-traumatic injuries, along with their associated pain or dysfunction, is increasingly being approached in an interdisciplinary manner. In this context, orthopedics and sports medicine now benefit from the latest advancements in regenerative medicine.
One of the most prominent options in orthobiological treatments is the careful application of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP). This treatment consists of a concentrated, supra-physiological solution of platelets obtained from the patient’s own blood, containing multiple growth factors that stimulate tissue healing, targeted inflammation, and angiogenesis.
This therapy has shown promising results in pain relief and joint function improvement, serving as a valuable complement to various conservative and/or surgical treatment protocols currently used in clinical practice.
The Portuguese Society of Orthopaedics and Traumatology (SPOT) recognizes PRP as a minimally invasive and innovative biological treatment. A leading choice for conservative therapy in Portugal, PRP effectively promotes tissue regeneration and reduces inflammation in tendon, muscle, and joint injuries.
