  1. Transperineal laser ablation for treating lower urinary tract symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia (HTG737)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transperineal laser ablation for treating lower urinary tract symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. This involves using laser energy to destroy some of the prostate tissue.

  2. MRI-guided focused ultrasound subthalamotomy for treating Parkinson's (HTG734)

    Evidence-based recommendations on MRI-guided focused ultrasound subthalamotomy for treating Parkinson’s. This involves using ultrasound to destroy tissue in an area of the brain linked to Parkinson’s symptoms.

  3. MRI-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy for treating moderate to severe tremor in Parkinson's (HTG733)

    Evidence-based recommendations on MRI-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy for treating moderate to severe tremor in Parkinson’s. This involves using ultrasound to destroy tissue in the thalamus.

  4. Direct skeletal fixation of limb prostheses using an intraosseous transcutaneous implant (HTG732)

    Evidence-based recommendations on direct skeletal fixation of limb prostheses using an intraosseous transcutaneous implant. This involves inserting a metal implant through the skin and into the centre of the bone of the stump and attaching a prosthetic limb to it.

  5. Endoscopic bipolar radiofrequency ablation for malignant biliary obstruction (HTG731)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic bipolar radiofrequency ablation for malignant biliary obstruction. This involves using heat energy to unblock the obstruction.

  6. Microwave ablation for atrial fibrillation in association with other cardiac surgery (HTG73)

    Evidence-based recommendations on microwave ablation for atrial fibrillation in association with other cardiac surgery. This involves scarring the heart tissue using heat produced from microwave energy to interrupt abnormal electrical signals.

  7. Single-step scaffold insertion for repairing symptomatic chondral knee defects (HTG728)

    Evidence-based recommendations on single-step scaffold insertion for repairing symptomatic chondral knee defects. This involves inserting a scaffold into the damaged area of the knee to support regrowth and repair of the cartilage.

  8. Phrenic nerve pacing for ventilator-dependent high cervical spinal cord injury (HTG727)

    Evidence-based recommendations on phrenic nerve pacing for ventilator-dependent high cervical spinal cord injury. This involves stimulating the phrenic nerve to make the diaphragm contract, helping people to breathe without a ventilator.

  9. Caval valve implantation for tricuspid regurgitation (HTG726)

    Evidence-based recommendations on caval valve implantation for tricuspid regurgitation in adults. This involves implanting valves into 1 or both caval veins without disturbing the tricuspid valve.

  10. Phrenic nerve pacing for congenital central hypoventilation syndrome (HTG725)

    Evidence-based recommendations on phrenic nerve pacing for congenital central hypoventilation syndrome. This involves direct stimulation of the phrenic nerve, to produce the inhalation phrase of breathing.

  11. Minimally invasive percutaneous surgical techniques with internal fixation for correcting hallux valgus (HTG723)

    Evidence-based recommendations on minimally invasive percutaneous surgical techniques with internal fixation for correcting hallux valgus. This involves cutting into the big toe to remove the bunion and securing the bones at the front of the foot.

  12. Laparoscopic nephrectomy (including nephroureterectomy) (HTG84)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laparoscopic nephrectomy (including nephroureterectomy). This involves making small incisions (keyhole surgery) to remove the damaged kidney, or kidney, ureter and surrounding tissue.

  13. Laparoscopic liver resection (HTG83)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laparoscopic liver resection. This involves making small incisions (keyhole surgery) to remove the parts of the liver that are benign or cancerous.

  14. Photodynamic therapy for bile duct cancer (HTG82)

    Evidence-based recommendations on photodynamic therapy for bile duct cancer. This involves injecting a photosensitising agent into the body that is then activated by a small laser to destroy cancer cells and shrink the blockage.

  15. Low dose rate brachytherapy for localised prostate cancer (HTG81)

    Evidence-based recommendations on low dose rate brachytherapy for localised prostate cancer. This involves placing small radioactive seeds into the prostate that give off low doses of radiation to destroy cancer cells.
