Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma injection is an emerging alternative treatment method for common musculoskeletal tendon injuries. This article discusses the biology of platelet-rich plasma, explains how it may promote healing, highlights some common applications of platelet-rich plasma and reviews the current clinical evidence-based literature.
