Exuberant inflammatory reaction as a side effect of platelet-rich plasma injection in treating one case of tendinopathy.
Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine 2014 March
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains a large number of growth factors, which may enhance tendon healing processes. Local injection of PRP represents a relatively new treatment for tendinopathies. To date, no side effects have been reported after injection of PRP to treat tendinopathy. We report a case of exuberant inflammatory reaction after 1 injection of PRP to treat jumper's knee in a 35-year-old male type 1 diabetic patient. Injections of PRP should be proposed only after careful consideration in cases of patients with morbidity risks linked to insulin-dependent diabetes.
