Platelet-rich plasma therapy for knee osteoarthritis: Insights from real-world clinical data in Japan
PRP therapy for KOA, as observed in the clinical setting in Japan, is a safe treatment option with significant pain reduction, particularly in patients with less severe deformity of KOA. However, its effectiveness decreases in severe deformity cases. These real-world clinical data provide valuable insights for refining the patient selection criteria and advancing KOA treatment strategies.
