Trophic ulcer is a common disability in leprosy, recalcitrant to treatment. Platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) is a new technique for the treatment of trophic ulcer. A study was done to assess the efficacy of PRF in the treatment of trophic ulcer. Twenty-five patients of Wagner's Grade 2 trophic ulcer secondary to leprosy were enrolled. PRF was prepared and applied to ulcers and dressed; this was repeated weekly until complete healing or up to a maximum of six sittings. Ninety percent reduction in mean ulcer volume was seen at 6 weeks, with a mean healing time of 5 weeks. PRF is cost-effective, day care procedure with promising results in trophic ulcers.
营养性溃疡是麻风病的一种常见致残性疾病,且难以治疗。富含血小板纤维蛋白(PRF)是一种治疗营养性溃疡的新技术。本研究旨在评估 PRF 在治疗营养性溃疡中的疗效。共纳入 25 例麻风病导致的 Wagner 2 级营养性溃疡患者。制备 PRF 并应用于溃疡处敷贴,每周重复一次,直至完全愈合或最多进行 6 次治疗。6 周时,平均溃疡体积减少 90%,平均愈合时间为 5 周。PRF 是一种具有成本效益的日间护理程序,在治疗营养性溃疡方面具有良好的效果。
