Written by the GCMD Library team from the article.
We read with great interest the recently published review article titled “Platelet-Rich Plasma in Pediatric Surgery: A Comprehensive Review” by Di Mitri et al. [1]. The authors have provided a thorough and valuable summary of the current literature regarding PRP applications in pediatric surgery. However, we believe that several important issues require further clarification.
