Abstract

Autologous plasma rich plasma (APRP) is an increasingly popular adjunct in surgical, medical and aesthetic interventions. Their beneficial effects lie in their ability to deliver a high concentrate of growth factors.In our study APRP was utilised in a child with scald burns to evaluate the efficacy and mechanism of action of APRP in successful take of a split skin graft.
