In platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, various growth factors and cytokines released the a-granules contained in platelets after activation can potentially enhance wound healing by delivering. We report a @entity1 in whom treatment with PRP, prepared using a syringe-centrifugation-system PRP kit (KYOCERA Medical PRP Kit), for a @entity292 following @entity2585 of the lateral malleolus, which could not be healed with conventional wound therapy, led to successful healing. A 58-year-old @entity1 was on dialysis for @entity2175 and @entity177 . In the left lateral malleolus, @entity2585 developed, leading to a refractory @entity292 with a @entity9285 measuring 4 * 3 cm, which persisted for more than 2 months. Platelet-rich plasma was prepared using the KYOCERA Medical PRP Kit (KYOCERA Medical Corporation, Osaka, Japan) and infused into the cavity twice to close it. After this procedure, the cavity size reduced, but the orifice and @entity9285 were not closed. Therefore, additional PRP therapy was conducted after 10 weeks of the first PRP session. Complete closure was achieved 13 weeks after the first PRP therapy. In the present case, PRP was prepared using the KYOCERA Medical PRP Kit, and wound healing of a @entity292 with @entity9285 following @entity2585 of the lateral malleolus was successfully cured. The KYOCERA Medical PRP Kit was useful, because PRP could be prepared simply and inexpensively using the syringe-centrifugation system.
