Arthroscopic surgery for degenerative knee arthritis and meniscal tears: a clinical practice guideline

Arthroscopic knee surgery for degenerative knee arthritis does not, on average, result in an improvement in long term pain or function. Most patients will experience an important improvement in pain and function without arthroscopy. However, in <15% of participants, arthroscopic surgery resulted in a small or very small improvement in pain or function at 3 months after surgery, this benefit was not sustained at 1 year. http://bjsm.bmj.com/content/52/5/313


Effectiveness for PRP (plasma rich platelets) and Synvisc (viscosupplementation)

Studies from 2017 show that there may be some benefit to PRP for knee and tennis elbow injuries however the results are inconsistent and thus inconclusive. Studies for viscosupplementation on hip and knee OA show that there may be some benefit and there does not appear to be any adverse effects.
