[QUOTE="CoastWatcher, post: 94300, member: 2624"] Autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP) is used increasingly in a variety of settings. PRP injections have been used for decades to improve angiogenesis and wound healing. They have also been offered commercially in urology with little to no data on safety or efficacy. This small study holds out some hope, along with a call for further testing, that the use of PRP may safe and beneficial in urological situations. [B]PRP could theoretically improve multiple urologic conditions, such as erectile dysfunction (ED), Peyronie's disease (PD), and stress urinary incontinence (SUI). [/B][ATTACH=CONFIG]4527[/ATTACH]Before clinical trials can be performed, safety analysis is desirable. We reviewed an initial series of patients receiving PRFM for urologic pathology to assess safety and feasibility. [LIST] [*]Data were reviewed for patients treated with PRFM from November 2012 to July 2017. Patients were observed immediately post-injection and at follow-up for complications and tolerability.

[*]Seventeen patients were identified, with a mean receipt of 2.1 injections per patient.
