PRP injection associated with lower healthcare use and costs versus lumbar surgery for DDD in retrospective study
Orthopedics & Sports Medicine Cohort
PRP injection associated with lower healthcare use and costs versus lumbar surgery for DDD in retrospective study For back pain, could an injection be a simpler, cheaper path than surgery?
A retrospective observational cohort study of adults with lumbar DDD compared PRP injection to lumbar fusion or decompression procedures.
Adults with back pain who received PRP injections instead of major spine surgery spent significantly less money and needed fewer follow-up v…
