PLATELET CONCENTRATES TO TREAT MUSCULOSKELETAL
DISEASE IN HORSES. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, March 2009, Pages: 104
The use of autologous platelet concentrates has been proposed to accelerate wound repair and to stimulate the regenerative capacity of injured tissues. Two pilot clinical studies about the effect of an autologous platelet concentrate in horses with severe chronic musculoskeletal pathology are presented in this research. Additionally, the technique for preparing this platelet concentrate, including its cellular and molecular characteristics is described in this book. The results obtained in this work open a new encouraging research field on clinical and molecular effects of autologous platelet concentrates in equine chronic musculoskeletal pathology. The future potential results obtained in horses can be of key value to determine the potential use of autologous platelet concentrates in human beings with chronic musculoskeletal pathology. This book represents an important reference for equine practitioners dedicated to the management of lame horses and researchers interested in the future trends of the regenerative therapy in both veterinary and human medicine.
