Overview

Unveiling Platelet-Rich Plasma is a popular-science book for general readers. Written in plain and accessible language and accompanied by medical cartoon illustrations, it is divided into seven major parts and thirty-one chapters. It elaborates in detail on the origin, naming, and developmental history of platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and introduces PRP classification, composition, mechanisms of action, clinical indications and contraindications, and treatment costs. It systematically describes the standardized operating procedure (SOP) for PRP preparation, operating-room management rules, and regulations for practitioners; introduces minimally invasive, precise PRP treatment guided by musculoskeletal ultrasound; and offers constructive guidance on PRP concentration and clinical application.

In popular-science style, this book introduces PRP treatment for knee osteoarthritis, osteochondral lesions of the talus, cartilage injury in femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, Osgood–Schlatter disease, meniscal injury, postmenopausal finger osteoarthritis in women, rotator cuff injury, lateral epicondylitis, medial collateral ligament injury, de Quervain’s stenosing tenosynovitis, frozen shoulder, Achilles tendon injury, insertional Achilles tendinitis, chronic plantar fasciitis, diabetic foot, lower-extremity venous ulcers, refractory wounds, pressure ulcers, discogenic low back pain, degenerative spinal diseases, nerve injury, transverse cervical nerve injury after thyroid surgery, femoral neck fracture, osteoporotic fracture, nonunion, delayed union and nonunion of fractures, androgenetic alopecia, and thinning hair on the crown of the head, as well as the role of PRP in treating skin problems and in breast reconstruction, together with specific explanations of clinical observation methods.

Rich in content and illustrated with figures, it is highly informative, instructive, standardized, and practical. It can serve as a learning resource for patients and PRP specialist physicians alike, and as a popular-science book for the general public to understand PRP and its clinical applications.
