Over the years, there has been good evidence that certain treatments are of little or no value, provide harm and have substantial costs associated with them. Arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) is not a recommended treatment for osteoarthritis. Despite this, millions of these procedures are still being performed each year.

Professor Teppo Järvinen, an orthopaedic surgeon at the department of orthopaedics and trauma at Helsinki University and Helsinki University Central Hospital.
