Effect of platelet-rich plasma on meniscus repair surgery: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials.

Background: Studies have shown that platelet-rich plasma (PRP) can enhance the effect of meniscus repair, but some studies have suggested different views on the role of PRP. Therefore, a meta-analysis was conducted to determine whether PRP can enhance the effect of meniscus repair with respect to pain reduction and improved functionality and cure rate in patients with meniscus injury.

Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library Databases, clinicaltrials.
