  1. Insertion of customised exposed titanium implants, without soft tissue cover, for complex orofacial reconstruction (HTG313)

    Evidence-based recommendations on insertion of customised exposed titanium implants, without soft tissue cover, for complex orofacial reconstruction. This involves making the titanium implants specially to fit the person using a model of their face.

  2. Corneal inlay implantation for correction of presbyopia (HTG311)

    Evidence-based recommendations on corneal inlay implantation for correction of Presbyopia. This involves placing a disc inside a flap or pocket made in the cornea to improve near vision.

  3. Occipital nerve stimulation for intractable chronic migraine (HTG310)

    Evidence-based recommendations on occipital nerve stimulation for intractable chronic migraine. This involves using implanted electrodes to deliver electrical impulses to the occipital nerve to mask migraine pain.

  4. Transpupillary thermotherapy for age-related macular degeneration (HTG31)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transpupillary thermotherapy for age-related macular degeneration. This involves using a laser to heat and seal up the blood vessels that are causing the problems.

  5. Laser correction of refractive error following non-refractive ophthalmic surgery (HTG256)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laser correction of refractive error following non-refractive ophthalmic surgery. This involves changing the shape of the cornea, so that light rays are more precisely directed onto the retina.

  6. Deep brain stimulation for intractable trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias (HTG252)

    Evidence-based recommendations on deep brain stimulation for intractable trigeminal autonomic cephalalgias. This involves delivering electrical impulses to a precise area of the brain using an electrode to mask the pain.

  7. Percutaneous atherectomy of femoropopliteal arterial lesions with plaque excision devices (HTG251)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous atherectomy of femoropopliteal arterial lesions with plaque excision devices. This involves using a special cutting device to remove excess debris inside diseased blood vessels.

  8. Hand allotransplantation (HTG254)

    Evidence-based recommendations on hand transplant surgery (allotransplantation). This involves transplanting a hand from a recently deceased donor onto the amputated stump.

  9. Percutaneous laser coronary angioplasty (HTG250)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous laser coronary angioplasty. This involves using a laser to burn away the deposits blocking the blood vessels of the heart.

  10. Deep brain stimulation for refractory chronic pain syndromes (excluding headache) (HTG253)

    Evidence-based recommendations on deep brain stimulation for refractory chronic pain syndromes (excluding headache). This involves stimulating a precise area of the brain using an electrode to treat the chronic pain.

  11. Vagus nerve stimulation for refractory epilepsy in children (HTG25)

    Evidence-based recommendations on vagus nerve stimulation for refractory epilepsy in children. This involves placing a device under the skin to send a burst of nerve messages through the nerve.

  12. Off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (HTG249)

    Evidence-based recommendations on off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting. This involves attaching a healthy blood vessel to the heart muscle so that blood can get round (‘bypass’) the affected part of the coronary artery.

  13. Extracorporeal shockwave therapy for refractory greater trochanteric pain syndrome (HTG248)

    Evidence-based recommendations on extracorporeal shockwave therapy for refractory greater trochanteric pain syndrome. This involves using a machine to deliver sound waves to the painful area to stimulate healing.

  14. Thoracoscopic repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia in neonates (HTG247)

    Evidence-based recommendations on thoracoscopic repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia in neonates. This involves inserting surgical instruments through small cuts in the chest, and then moving the abdominal organs out of the chest and repairing the diaphragm.

  15. Distal iliotibial band lengthening for refractory greater trochanteric pain syndrome (HTG246)

    Evidence-based recommendations on distal iliotibial band lengthening for refractory greater trochanteric pain syndrome. This involves lengthening the fibrous band that runs along the outside of the thigh from the hip to the knee (iliotibial band).
