Summary:

Objective: To assess surgical outcomes in achondroplasic pediatric patients receiving PRP-therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma therapy) for lengthening long bones. Material and Methods: 27 achondroplasic patients had been examined and operated in the pediatric trauma orthopedic department of the Scientific Research Institute of Traumatology, Orthopedics and Neurosurgery of Saratov State Medical University n. a. V.I. Rasumovsky in 2014-2018, their mean age 4.7±2.1 у. o. (4-11 у. o. range). The examination involved conventional clinical examination as well as X-ray examination. All patients were divided into 2 groups, the division criteria being intraoperative application of PRP-therapy (autoplasma therapy or plasmolifting). Group 1 (n=14) was made up of patients who had underwent transosseous compression distraction osteosynthesis with no PRP employed while all patients of Group 2 (n=13) had received PRP injections. Results: The distraction consolidation index (DCI) in Group 1 (n=14) was 72±7 days/cm (good and satisfactory results) and the average length of the grown distraction was 4.5±2.5 cm. In PRP-therapy employed Group 2 DCI was 65±10 days/cm (good results) and the distraction length was 6.5±2.5 cm. In patients of Group 1 sectioned, lateral and central forms of the distraction prevailed while in patients who had received PRP-therapy spindle and cylinder forms of the distraction were observed. Conclusion: PRP-therapy employed in all stages of the elective distraction at limb osteotomy allows significant DCI improvement as well as activation of bone tissue remodeling in the osteotomy area, the geometric type of trabeculae formation being more beneficial.
