Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
To Compare The Functional Outcome Of Patients With Osteoarthrosis Of Knee (KL Grade 2), Receiving Intra-Articular Injections Of Platelet Rich Plasma. A Prospective Study Of 120 Patients (Aged Above 30 Years) With Clinical And Radiological Diagnosis Of Osteoarthrosis Of Knee Joint (Unilateral/ Bilateral) Was Conducted During The Period Between January2016 To November 2017 In The Department Of Orthopaedics, Nri Academy Of Sciences, Chinakakani, Guntur (Dt), Andhra pradesh.
