Influence of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF) on Healing of Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) Tear
To evaluate the influence of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors (PRGF) on the healing process of medial collateral ligament (MCL) tear.
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.
