Is platelet-rich plasma injection an effective choice in cases of non-union?
Fracture healing is a process affected by many factors. Although PRP has been reported in literature to be a biological treatment which increases healing, adequate healing was not determined in the treatment of non-union with PRP injection. However, in selected patients determined with delayed union, PRP injection can be recommended in non-surgical treatment.
