Abstract

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy was used in treating postoperative wound complications in an 11 years old cat. After mechanical debridement of the wound, the wound edges were infiltrated three times at certain intervals with PRP. The wound healed completely 50 days after treatment. This clinicalcase indicates that autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) can be successfully used in treating postoperative wounds with complications in the cat.
