  1. Breast reconstruction using lipomodelling after breast cancer treatment (HTG280)

    Evidence-based recommendations on breast reconstruction using lipomodelling after breast cancer treatment. This involves taking fat from the abdomen or thighs and injecting it into the breast in the area of the deformity caused by surgery.

  2. Endoscopic injection of bulking agents for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (HTG28)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic injection of bulking agents for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. This involves injecting a filler into the junction using a catheter to make the entry to the stomach narrower, so that the contents of the stomach cannot pass back.

  3. Epiretinal brachytherapy for wet age-related macular degeneration (HTG279)

    Evidence-based recommendations on epiretinal brachytherapy for wet age related macular degeneration. This involves using radiation therapy used to destroy the new blood vessels.

  4. Single-port laparoscopic nephrectomy (HTG278)

    Evidence-based recommendations on single-port laparoscopic nephrectomy. This involves removing the kidney using several small incisions (laparoscopy).

  5. Implantation of a duodenal–jejunal bypass liner for managing type 2 diabetes (HTG371)

    Evidence-based recommendations on implantation of a duodenal-jejunal bypass liner for managing type 2 diabetes. This involves attaching a liner as a barrier between food and the upper part of the bowel, with the aim of lowering blood sugar levels.

  6. Faecal microbiota transplant for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection (HTG338)

    Evidence-based recommendations on faecal microbiota transplant for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. This involves introducing enteric bacteria from the faeces of healthy donors to restore a healthy balance of bacteria in the gut.

  7. Radiofrequency ablation of the soft palate for snoring (HTG327)

    Evidence-based recommendations on radiofrequency ablation of the soft palate for snoring. This involves using an electrode device to puncture and send radiofrequency energy into the soft palate to scar and tighten it.

  8. Uterine artery embolisation for treating adenomyosis (HTG324)

    Evidence-based recommendations on uterine artery embolisation for treating adenomyosis. This involves injecting small particles to block the blood supply to the adenomyosis (thickening of the womb lining).

  9. Implantation of a duodenal–jejunal bypass sleeve for managing obesity (HTG323)

    Evidence-based recommendations on implantation of a duodenal-jejunal bypass sleeve for managing obesity. This involves attaching a sleeve to the upper part of the bowel to slow digestion.

  10. Corticosteroid-eluting bioabsorbable stent or spacer insertion during endoscopic sinus surgery to treat chronic rhinosinusitis (HTG407)

    Evidence-based recommendations on corticosteroid-eluting bioabsorbable stent or spacer insertion during endoscopic sinus surgery for chronic rhinosinusitis in adults. This involves putting a stent (short tube) into the sinus to improve drainage.

  11. Endoscopic carbon dioxide laser cricopharyngeal myotomy for relief of oropharyngeal dysphagia (HTG406)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic carbon dioxide laser cricopharyngeal myotomy for relief of oropharyngeal dysphagia in adults. This involves inserting an endoscope (a thin, rigid tube with a camera on the end) through the mouth, and using a carbon dioxide laser to cut through the muscle that runs round the top of the gullet.

  12. Normothermic extracorporeal preservation of hearts for transplantation following donation after brainstem death (HTG404)

    Evidence-based recommendations on normothermic extracorporeal preservation of hearts for transplant after brainstem death. This technique is used to store a donor heart for longer before being transplanted.

  13. Mechanical clot retrieval for treating acute ischaemic stroke (HTG403)

    Evidence-based recommendations on mechanical clot retrieval for treating acute ischaemic stroke in adults. This involves using a device to remove the blood clot from the brain to restore normal blood flow.

  14. Angioplasty and stenting to treat peripheral arterial disease causing refractory erectile dysfunction (HTG402)

    Evidence-based recommendations on angioplasty and stenting to treat peripheral arterial disease causing refractory erectile dysfunction in adults. This involves using a device to improve blood flow to the penis.

  15. Balloon dilatation of pulmonary valve stenosis (HTG40)

    Evidence-based recommendations on balloon dilatation of pulmonary valve stenosis. This involves passing a small deflated balloon up through a blood vessel at the top of the leg and into the blocked area in the heart.
