  1. 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.

  2. Image-guided percutaneous laser ablation for primary and secondary liver tumours (HTG722)

    Evidence-based recommendations on image-guided percutaneous laser ablation for primary and secondary liver tumours. This involves heating up liver tissue to destroy tumours.

  3. Endoscopic duodenal mucosal resurfacing for insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes (HTG721)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic duodenal mucosal resurfacing for insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes. This involves using heat to destroy the lining of the duodenum to encourage a new lining to grow.

  4. Selective internal radiation therapy for neuroendocrine tumours that have metastasised to the liver (HTG720)

    Evidence-based recommendations on selective internal radiation therapy for neuroendocrine tumours that have metastasised to the liver. This involves injecting tiny radioactive spheres into the blood vessels that supply the liver metastases.

  5. Radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation in association with other cardiac surgery (HTG72)

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

  6. Lymphovenous anastomosis during axillary or inguinal node dissection for preventing secondary lymphoedema (HTG717)

    Evidence-based recommendations on lymphovenous anastomosis during axillary or inguinal node dissection for preventing secondary lymphoedema in adults. This involves diverting some of the lymphatic vessels around where lymph nodes have been removed to nearby veins.

  7. Endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty for obesity (HTG711)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic sleeve gastroplasty for obesity. This involves using an endoscopic device to fold the stomach in on itself and stitch it together to reduce its volume.

  8. Temperature control to improve neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest (HTG710)

    Evidence-based recommendations on temperature control to improve neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest. This involves controlling a person’s body temperature while they are still unconscious after their heart has been restarted. Either their body is kept at a normal temperature of between 36.5°C and 37.5°C to prevent fever, or it is cooled to between 32.0°C and 36.0°C (therapeutic hypothermia).

  9. Cryotherapy for recurrent prostate cancer (HTG71)

    Evidence-based recommendations on cryotherapy for treating recurrent prostate cancer. This involves putting special needles or probes into the prostate and using Argon gas to freeze and destroy the cancerous prostate tissue.

  10. Pharyngeal electrical stimulation for neurogenic dysphagia (HTG709)

    Evidence-based recommendations on pharyngeal electrical stimulation for neurogenic dysphagia. This involves passing a catheter through the nose and into the throat where it is used to deliver small amounts of electrical current. The current travels from the throat to the brain and stimulates the areas involved in swallowing.

  11. Intravascular lithotripsy for calcified arteries in peripheral arterial disease (HTG707)

    Evidence-based recommendations on intravascular lithotripsy for calcified arteries in peripheral arterial disease. This involves using pressure waves to soften arterial plaque and widen the artery to improve blood flow.

  12. Middle meningeal artery embolisation for chronic subdural haematomas (HTG706)

    Evidence-based recommendations on middle meningeal artery embolisation for chronic subdural haematomas. This involves injecting particles into the middle meningeal artery to block it.

  13. Bioresorbable stent implantation to treat coronary artery disease (HTG633)

    Evidence-based recommendations on bioresorbable stent implantation to treat coronary artery disease in adults. This involves implanting a stent (small tube) into a narrowed artery to widen it.

  14. Transcatheter tricuspid valve leaflet repair for tricuspid regurgitation (HTG632)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transcatheter tricuspid valve leaflet repair for tricuspid regurgitation in adults. This involves putting a device on the heart valve to help it close.

  15. Transcatheter tricuspid valve annuloplasty for tricuspid regurgitation (HTG631)

    Evidence-based recommendations on transcatheter tricuspid valve annuloplasty for tricuspid regurgitation in adults. This involves putting a device on the heart valve to help it close.
