Background: The use of advanced platelet-rich fibrin (A-PRF) membranes for guided bone and tissue regeneration in through-and-through defects after endodontic surgery was explored in three cases.
Case Summary: Herein, three patients presented to the endodontic clinic suffering from apical periodontitis, associated with large bone resorption and related to previously endodontically treated teeth. Periapical surgery was indicated in these cases and the osteotomy site was covered by A-PRF membrane. Cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) was used to assess the cases before and after the surgery.
Conclusion: Four months post-surgery, the recall CBCT scan showed complete obliteration of the osteotomy with newly formed bone. A-PRF membrane showed promising results and was an advantageous addition to surgical endodontic treatment.

Treatment of gingival recession with vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access and advanced platelet-rich fibrin.
BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Oral Medicine, Periodontology, Diagnosis and Oral Radiology Department, Faculty of Dentistry, Mansoura University, Mansoura, 33516, Egypt.
Objectives: The current literature about the effect of advanced platelet rich fibrin(A-PRF) with vestibular incision subperiosteal tunnel access (VISTA) technique in treating gingival recession is scarce. Therefore, the aim of the current randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the effect of A-PRF with VISTA technique in the treatment of Cairo class 1 gingival recession (RT1).
Methods: Twenty-four patients who met the eligibility criteria were randomly allocated into two groups.

Introduction And Importance: Diabetic foot ulcers, especially when complicated by cellulitis, pose a significant challenge in diabetes management, often leading to amputation. This case report highlights the successful treatment of a diabetic foot ulcer in an amputation candidate using a combination of negative pressure wound therapy and platelet-rich plasma injection, potentially reducing the risk of amputation in high-risk patients.
Case Presentation: A 62-year-old male with poorly controlled diabetes presented with a chronic diabetic foot ulcer and cellulitis.

Background: Chronic nonhealing neuropathic foot ulcers affect approximately 15% to 30% of patients with diabetes mellitus and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Although current strategies to address these chronic wounds include a multifactorial approach, clinical outcomes remain poor and warrant improvement. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), derived from autologous or allogeneic blood, is an emerging regenerative product that aims to serve as an adjuvant to standard diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) treatment.
