Use of PRP in Treatment of Mandibular Traumatic Bone Cyst

The study sample consisted of 12 young adult volunteers presenting with TBC of mandible. Local ethical committee approval will be obtained before the trial starts. Laboratory tests (complete blood count, glucose, creatinine, platelets, lipid profile) were performed for all patients. These tests provided an important overview of patient health and a baseline for analysis of the prognosis of PRP use. The process for obtaining PRP basically consists of collection of a 20-mL sample of blood, centrifugation of this sample for 8 min, isolation of a 1-mL aliquot of plasma collected near the erythrocyte fraction. Surgical procedure includes: surgical exploration and injection of PRP to stimulate bone regeneration within the bony cavity . Bone repair was assessed by panoramic X-rays obtained at 2, 4, and 6 months postoperatively. Bone density was measured by area histogram analysis.
