    Evidence-based recommendations on fallopian tube recanalisation by guidewire. This involves injecting dye through a narrow tube inserted into the fallopian tube and if this does not unblock it, using a guidewire.

  2. Endoscopic full thickness removal of non-lifting colonic polyps (HTG439)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic full thickness removal of non-lifting colonic polyps. This involves using a special device to remove the polyp and seal the bowel wall closed afterwards.

  3. Irreversible electroporation for treating pancreatic cancer (HTG437)

    Evidence-based recommendations on irreversible electroporation for treating pancreatic cancer. This involves inserting special needles into the tumour in the pancreas and using short electrical pulses to destroy the cancer cells.

  4. Minimally invasive sacroiliac joint fusion surgery for chronic sacroiliac pain (HTG436)

    Evidence-based recommendations on minimally invasive sacroiliac joint fusion surgery for chronic sacroiliac pain in adults. This involves fixing the sacrum to the ilium using 2 or 3 metal implants.

  5. Trabecular stent bypass microsurgery for open-angle glaucoma (HTG432)

    Evidence-based recommendations on trabecular stent bypass microsurgery for open-angle glaucoma. This involves inserting a hollow metal tube (stent) into the eye, to improve drainage of fluid from the eye.

  6. Lateral interbody fusion in the lumbar spine for low back pain (HTG431)

    Evidence-based recommendations on lateral interbody fusion in the lumbar spine for low back pain in adults. This involves removing the damaged disc and fixing parts of the spine together, to relieve pain.

  7. Scleral expansion surgery for presbyopia (HTG43)

    Evidence-based recommendations on scleral expansion surgery for presbyopia. This involves making small incisions in the eye and inserting bands to stretch part of the sclera.

  8. Radiation therapy for early Dupuytren's disease (HTG427)

    Evidence-based recommendations on radiation therapy for early Dupuytren’s contractures in adults. This involves directing low energy X-rays at the affected tissue.

  9. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy for Achilles tendinopathy (HTG426)

  10. Epiduroscopic lumbar discectomy through the sacral hiatus for sciatica (HTG425)

    Evidence-based recommendations on epiduroscopic lumbar discectomy through the sacral hiatus for sciatica in adults. This involves removing the part of the spinal disc pressing against the spinal nerve, to relieve pain.

  11. Insertion of an annular disc implant at lumbar discectomy (HTG358)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of an annular disc implant at lumbar discectomy. This involves inserting an implant to close the hole that is left in a torn disc after any bulging material has been removed during surgery.

  12. Telemetric adjustable pulmonary artery banding for pulmonary hypertension in infants with congenital heart defects (HTG357)

    Evidence-based recommendations on telemetric adjustable pulmonary artery banding for reducing pulmonary hypertension in infants with congenital heart defects. This involves placing a remote-controlled band around the pulmonary artery that can be tightened or loosened to control blood flow.

  13. Combined endoscopic and laparoscopic removal of colonic polyps (HTG354)

    Evidence-based recommendations on combined endoscopic and laparoscopic removal of colonic polyps. This involves using an endoscope in the bowel plus keyhole surgery through the skin of the abdomen to remove colonic polyps.

  14. Total prosthetic replacement of the temporomandibular joint (HTG352)

    Evidence-based recommendations on total prosthetic replacement of the temporomandibular joint. This involves replacing the joint with an artificial one.
