Impact of Centrifugation Parameters on Platelet-Rich Plasma Injection for Patella Tendinopathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Patellar tendinopathy (PT) is a chronic, degenerative form of tendinitis commonly affecting young, active individuals. Numerous nonsurgical treatments exist, of which platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a frontrunner. However, heterogeneity among various PRP preparation techniques results in a large variation in treatment efficacy.

Radiographic Outcomes Following the Suture Fixation of Mid-pole Patellar Fractures.

Background Mid-pole patellar fractures are typically fixed with metal implants in the conventional "11-8" tension band construct. However, this technique is fraught with numerous implant-related complications. The aim of this study is to evaluate the union rate following "all-suture" fixation of mid-pole patellar fractures.
