The aim of this study was to investigate the usefulness of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) treatment for chronic wounds (CWs) of the breast. A prospective study was performed in 23 patients with CW of the breast who were treated with PRP. The procedure was repeated until the wound was closed completely. The study included patients with a history of breast cancer (n = 8) and patients without cancer (n = 15). The treatment with PRP was successful in all cases and observed in ≤4 weeks in 82.6% (19/23) of patients. The patients without breast cancer showed significantly less time for wound closure than the patients with a history of breast cancer. Moreover, a greater number of PRP treatments were necessary to achieve wound closure in patients undergoing conservative breast treatment. No patients had complications associated with the application of PRP. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study to reveal that PRP treatment for CWs of the breast is safe, simple, useful and well-tolerated by patients.

SynopsisA prospective study of antipsychotic drug treatment showed no difference in response between schizophrenic in-patients with or without a familial predisposition to the illness (N = 53). All patients received at least 600 mg chlorpromazine equivalents antipsychotic medication for 6 weeks. Ventricle brain ratios, ratings of cortical sulcal widening and a history of obstetric complications also failed to account for the variability, but early age of onset was associated with unsatisfactory response.
