Total distal radioulnar joint replacement for symptomatic joint instability or arthritis (HTG451)
Evidence-based recommendations on total distal radioulnar joint replacement for symptomatic joint instability or arthritis in adults. This involves removing the wrist end of the ulna and replacing it with a metal prosthesis that also attaches to the wrist end of the radius.
Evidence-based recommendations on intramuscular diaphragm stimulation for ventilator-dependent chronic respiratory failure in people with motor neurone disease. This involves implanting electrodes into the diaphragm to make it contract. This gradually strengthens the diaphragm and may eventually help the person to breathe without a ventilator.
Evidence-based recommendations on balloon angioplasty with or without stenting for coarctation or recoarctation of the aorta in adults and children. This involves gently inflating a balloon in the narrow area of the aorta to widen it so blood can flow more easily.

High-intensity focused ultrasound for symptomatic breast fibroadenoma (HTG449)
Evidence-based recommendations on high-intensity focused ultrasound for symptomatic breast fibroadenoma in adults. This involves using high-frequency sound waves to heat up the tissues in the lump.
Ab externo canaloplasty for primary open-angle glaucoma (HTG448)
Evidence-based recommendations on ab externo canaloplasty for primary open-angle glaucoma in adults. This involves widening the eye’s main draining canal by inserting a tiny tube, then removing the tube and stitching the canal to keep it open.
Evidence-based recommendations on radiofrequency treatment for haemorrhoids in adults. This involves using radiofrequency energy to shrink the haemorrhoids.
Transcatheter aortic valve implantation for aortic stenosis (HTG446)
Evidence-based recommendations on transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) for aortic stenosis. This involves inserting a new valve through a catheter, usually by way of a large blood vessel at the top of the leg, into the heart and inside the existing faulty valve.
Uterine suspension using mesh (including sacrohysteropexy) to repair uterine prolapse (HTG445)
Evidence-based recommendations on uterine suspension using mesh (including sacrohysteropexy) to repair uterine prolapse in women. This involves attaching mesh from the uterus or cervix either to the bone at the base of the spine or to a ligament in the pelvis to hold the uterus in place.
Sacrocolpopexy using mesh to repair vaginal vault prolapse (HTG444)
Evidence-based recommendations on sacropolpopexy using mesh to repair vaginal vault prolapse in women. This involves attaching mesh, usually from the top of the vagina to the base of the spine, to support the pelvic organs.
Infracoccygeal sacropexy using mesh to repair uterine prolapse (HTG443)
Evidence-based recommendations on infracoccygeal sacropexy using mesh to repair uterine prolapse in women. This involves attaching mesh from the buttocks to the top of the vagina to hold the uterus in place.
Infracoccygeal sacropexy using mesh to repair vaginal vault prolapse (HTG442)
Evidence-based recommendations on infracoccygeal sacropexy using mesh to repair vaginal vault prolapse in women. This involves attaching mesh from the buttocks to the top of the vagina to hold the vagina in place.
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.
