  1. Percutaneous deep venous arterialisation for chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (HTG698)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous deep venous arterialisation for chronic limb-threatening ischaemia. This involves making a hole between a blocked artery and a vein, allowing the blood to flow into the leg beyond the blockage.

  2. 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.

  3. Intramuscular diaphragm stimulation for ventilator-dependent chronic respiratory failure from high spinal cord injuries (HTG679)

    Evidence-based recommendations on intramuscular diaphragm stimulation for ventilator-dependent chronic respiratory failure from high spinal cord injuries. This involves keyhole abdominal surgery. The aim is to stimulate and possibly strengthen the diaphragm to help people breathe without a ventilator.

  4. Implantation of a corneal graft–keratoprosthesis for severe corneal opacity in wet blinking eyes (HTG389)

    Evidence-based recommendations on implantation of a corneal graft–keratoprosthesis for severe corneal opacity in wet blinking eyes. This involves inserting an artificial cornea surrounded by a corneal graft from a human donor.

  5. Percutaneous (non-thoracoscopic) epicardial catheter radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation (HTG186)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous (non-thoracoscopic) epicardial catheter radiofrequency ablation for atrial fibrillation. This involves using heat to destroy selected areas of the heart to prevent the abnormal electrical impulses responsible for atrial fibrillation.

  6. Supercapsular percutaneously assisted total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis (HTG626)

    Evidence-based recommendations on supercapsular percutaneously assisted total hip arthroplasty for osteoarthritis in adults. This involves replacing a hip using smaller cuts than are used in standard surgery.

  7. Endoanchoring systems in endovascular aortic aneurysm repair (HTG625)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoanchoring systems in endovascular aortic aneurysm repair. This involves using an anchoring device to hold a stent in place to prevent leaks in an aneurysm repair.

  8. Intramedullary distraction for lower limb lengthening (HTG613)

    Evidence-based recommendations on intramedullary distraction for lower limb lengthening in children, young people and adults. This involves surgically inserting a metal lengthening device in the shorter leg.

  9. Hysteroscopic mechanical tissue removal (hysteroscopic morcellation) for uterine fibroids (HTG590)

    Evidence-based recommendations on hysteroscopic mechanical tissue removal (hysteroscopic morcellation) for uterine fibroids in adults. This involves cutting the fibroids into small pieces to remove them.

  10. Percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy for acute deep vein thrombosis of the leg (HTG516)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous mechanical thrombectomy for acute deep vein thrombosis of the leg in adults. This involves removing the clot through a catheter inserted into the vein.

  11. Laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy for internal rectal prolapse (HTG475)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laparoscopic ventral mesh rectopexy for internal rectal prolapse in adults. This involves using a piece of sterile material (mesh) to attach the rectum to the lower back bone using keyhole surgery.

  12. Endoscopic axillary lymph node retrieval for breast cancer (HTG93)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endoscopic axillary lymph node retrieval for breast cancer. This involves using narrow instruments to remove the lymph nodes through small, rather than large, openings to reduce the risk of infection and other problems.

  13. Low dose rate brachytherapy for localised prostate cancer (HTG81)

    Evidence-based recommendations on low dose rate brachytherapy for localised prostate cancer. This involves placing small radioactive seeds into the prostate that give off low doses of radiation to destroy cancer cells.

  14. Drainage, irrigation and fibrinolytic therapy (DRIFT) for post-haemorrhagic hydrocephalus in preterm infants (HTG276)

    Evidence-based recommendations on drainage, irrigation and fibrinolytic therapy (DRIFT) for post-haemorrhagic hydrocephalus in preterm infants. This involves draining excess CSF from the brain, washing out the blood, and breaking down blood clots using drugs (fibrinolytics).

  15. Tissue-cultured limbal stem cell allograft transplantation for regrowth of corneal epithelium (HTG139)

    Evidence-based recommendations on tissue-cultured limbal stem cell allograft transplantation for regrowth of corneal epithelium. This involves taking limbal stem cells from a living or deceased donor, growing them in the laboratory and transplanting them onto the patient’s affected eye(s).
