NCT01991353 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2016-04-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will compare meniscal healing with or without platelet rich plasma. The assessments will include validated, disease specific, patient oriented outcome measures, MRI arthrogram (MRA). Results of this study will help ascertain whether PRP improves meniscal healing rates.

Null Hypothesis: There is no difference in meniscal healing with or without the use of PRP.

Conditions

  • Meniscus Lesion

Interventions

PROCEDURE

With PRP

Following meniscal repair, PRFM will be delivered arthroscopically into the tear site using a portal skid, arthroscopic canula and arthroscopic atraumatic tissue grasper into the interface of the repair site.

PROCEDURE
