efficiency of platelet rich plasma (PRP) in the management of patients with chronic localized recalcitrant plaque
psoriasis.This was a prospective pilot study conducted on 30 cases with chronic localized recalcitrant psoriasis

obtained from them before the begining of the study.PASI score had significantly decreased in group I after 8 and 16
weeks of treatment when compared to the baseline (p =0.001). There was also significant decrease in PASI score between
week 8, 16 (p =0.0018). PASI score showed no significant difference in group II neither at week 8 nor 16 compared to
