Efficacy of autologous platelet-rich plasma in the treatment of refractory wounds after breast cancer surgery / 中国输血杂志

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To explore the effect of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of refractory wounds after radical breast cancer resection. 【Methods】 The clinical data of 8 patients with refractory wound healing after radical resection of breast cancer, who received autologous PRP treatment at the South District Wound Treatment Center from November 2020 to May 2021, were collected, including age, sex, wound location, wound area/depth, TNM staging, surgical method, postoperative pathology, chemotherapy conditions, PRP treatment, etc. Wound healing time and scar hyperplasia (vascular distribution, color, softness, thickness, itching, pain, etc.) were observed after PRP treatment. The efficacy of autologous PRP was analyzed and evaluated retrospectively based on the above data. 【Results】 The wounds of 8 patients healed smoothly, and the granulation tissue of the wound was relatively matured and completely covered by the crawling epidermis. The wound healing time was 14 to 26 (20.6±3.6) days, and all patients had not developed scar hyperplasia. 【Conclusion】 The efficacy of autologous PRP treatment of refractory wounds after radical breast cancer resection is fast and effective, and can eliminate scar hyperplasia, which is worthy of clinical promotion.
