Focal therapy using high-intensity focused ultrasound for localised prostate cancer (HTG667)
Evidence-based recommendations on focal therapy using high-intensity focused ultrasound for localised prostate cancer. This involves using high-intensity focused ultrasound to heat up and destroy only the areas of the prostate with cancer (focal therapy). The aim is to destroy the cancer while reducing damage to healthy prostate tissue.

Percutaneous thoracic duct embolisation for persistent chyle leak (HTG666)
Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous thoracic duct embolisation for persistent chyle leak. In this procedure, under general anaesthesia, ultrasound and X-rays are used to create an image of the thoracic duct and find the leak. Then, using a needle, a tube is inserted through the abdominal wall (percutaneous) and guided into the thoracic duct. Small metal coils and medical glue are inserted through the tube and used to plug the leak (embolisation). The aim is to stop the leak.

Evidence-based recommendations on removal, preservation and subsequent reimplantation of ovarian tissue to prevent symptoms from the menopause. This involves removing a small piece of ovarian tissue using keyhole surgery, freezing and storing it. After menopause starts, the tissue is thawed and transplanted under the skin of the armpit, abdomen or forearm, with the aim of producing oestrogen.
