Editorial Commentary: Use of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Should We Abandon?

David Figueroa. Arthroscopy. 2020 Apr.

Abstract

The advantages of using platelet-rich plasma application in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction remains controversial. However, I think further long-term and better design studies are needed to identify whether the administration of platelet-rich plasma could truly play a beneficial role during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
