BACKGROUND: Autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is a concentrate of platelet-rich plasma protein derived from autologous whole blood. The activated platelets can release a large number of high concentrations of growth factors and bioactive substances, which provides a theoretical basis for its application in various disciplines and fields. At the same time, autologous PRP has been popularized because it will not cause immune rejection with extensive sources, easy to extract and low cost.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the preparation method and performance of autologous PRP, and to explore its latest research results and underlying mechanisms in spinal surgeries.METHODS: A computer-based online retrieval of CNKI and PubMed databases was performed for articles concerning autologous PRP used in spinal surgeries. Finally, 42 eligible literatures were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Autologous PRP is rich in a variety of growth factors and bioactive substances, so it has been used in the fields of disc repair, bone conduction and osteoinduction, and its effectiveness has been confirmed through abundant basic and clinical trials. (2) Meanwhile, autologous PRP also is used for tissue repair and skin regeneration, such as spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid leakage and pressure ulcer. (3) Notably, autologous PRP has shown a promising prospect in the field of spinal surgeries.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of a palliative regimen of computed tomography (CT)-guided 125I seed im-plantation combined with chemotherapy for recurrent ovarian cancer. Methods:A total of 21 patients with recurrent ovarian cancer, who received 125I seed implantation and chemotherapy, were retrospectively analyzed. Out of the 29 lesions detected, 25 lesions were suitable for 125I seed implantation. Treatment planning system (TPS) was implemented preoperatively to determine the number and dis-tribution of 125I seeds. Under CT guidance, 125I seeds were implanted into the recurrent lesions using the TPS. Within 3 d of 125I seed im-plantation, liposomal paclitaxel was administered by intravenous infusion on day 1 and carboplatin by infusion via the feeding artery of tumor on day 2. Chemotherapy was repeated on a 21-day schedule. Efficacy and complications were evaluated during follow-up. Re-sults:After two cycles of chemotherapy, out of the 25 recurrent lesions that underwent 125I seed implantation, four lesions showed com-plete remission, 14 with partial remission, three with stable disease, and four with progression of disease. The objective response rate was 72%, and the pain relief rate was 82.4%. Karnofsky's performance status scores increased dramatically (P=0.019). The median pro-gression-free survival time was 6.8 months, median overall survival time was 14.2 months, and the 1-year survival rate was 42.9%. He-matologic toxicity and gastrointestinal reactions were the primary adverse conditions. No severe radiation complications and treat-ment-related deaths were observed in all patients. Conclusion:CT-guided 125I seed implantation combined with chemotherapy is active and well-tolerated in patients with recurrent ovarian cancer. This combined treatment cannot only significantly enhance the objective re-sponse rate, but also leads to remarkable improvement in cancer-related symptoms.
