  1. Laparo-endogastric surgery (IPG25)

    Evidence-based recommendations on laparo-endogastric surgery. This involves performing surgery for gastric wall lesions by passing a flexible telescope (endoscope) through the gullet and into the stomach, and a thin tube (laparascope) through a small cut in the upper abdomen.

  2. Therapeutic percutaneous image-guided aspiration of spinal cysts (IPG223)

    Evidence-based recommendations on therapeutic percutaneous image-guided aspiration of spinal cord cysts. This involves using a needle to drain the cyst and remove pressure on the spinal cord or nerve roots.

  3. Endovenous laser treatment of the long saphenous vein (IPG52)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endovenous laser treatment of the long saphenous vein. This involves using laser and heat to seal up the vein.

  4. Computed tomography-guided thermocoagulation of osteoid osteoma (IPG53)

    Evidence-based recommendations on computed tomography-guided thermocoagulation of osteoid osteoma. This involves using high-frequency energy to heat the growth and destroy it.

  5. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in postneonatal children (IPG38)

    Evidence-based recommendations on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in postneonatal children. This involves connecting the child's internal circulation to an external blood pump and artificial lung.

  6. Non-surgical reduction of the myocardial septum (IPG40)

    Evidence-based recommendations on non-surgical reduction of myocardial septum. This involves inserting a catheter into the femoral artery and passing it up into the heart under X-ray control.

  7. Sacral nerve stimulation for faecal incontinence (IPG99)

    Evidence-based recommendations on sacral nerve stimulation for faecal incontinence. This involves using electrodes inserted under the skin to produce pulses of electricity thought to affect the nerves controlling the lower part of the bowel and the anal sphincter.

  8. Balloon dilatation with or without stenting for pulmonary artery or non-valvar right ventricular outflow tract obstruction in children (IPG76)

    Evidence-based recommendations on balloon dilatation with or without stenting for pulmonary artery or non-valvar right ventricular outflow tract obstruction in children. This involves using a balloon to widen the narrow area of the heart to let blood flow through it more easily.

  9. Stent placement for vena caval obstruction (IPG79)

    Evidence-based recommendations on stent placement for vena caval obstruction. This involves using a catheter to position a stent, which may be self-expanding or balloon-dilated, across the area of narrowing to relieve it.

  10. Lumbar subcutaneous shunt (IPG68)

    Evidence-based recommendations on lumbar subcutaneous shunt. This involves using a shunt to drain excess cerebrospinal fluid away so that it doesn’t damage the brain or eyes.

  11. Percutaneous endoscopic laser thoracic discectomy (IPG61)

    Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous endoscopic laser thoracic discectomy. This involves using a laser to heat and destroy some of the inside of the disc and shrink the part that is sticking out.

  12. Image-guided vacuum-assisted excision biopsy of benign breast lesions (IPG156)

    Evidence-based recommendations on image-guided vacuum-assisted excision biopsy for benign breast lesions. This involves inserting a needle with a suction device through a small opening in the breast to remove non-cancerous lumps.

  13. Intraoperative fluorescence angiography for the evaluation of coronary artery bypass graft patency (IPG98)

    Evidence-based recommendations on intraoperative flourescence angiography in coronary artery bypass grafting. This involves injecting a small amount of a special dye into the blood vessels near to the heart, using a small laser to activitate it and tracking the dye with a video camera.

  14. Balloon angioplasty of pulmonary vein stenosis in infants (IPG75)

    Evidence-based recommendations on balloon angioplasty of pulmonary vein stenosis in infants. This involves involves inflating a balloon in the narrow section of the pulmonary vein to widen the area so blood can flow through more easily.

  15. Endovascular atrial septostomy (IPG86)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endovascular atrial septostomy. This involves inflating a balloon passed into the heart with a catheter to try to make the hole bigger so that it doesn’t close up completely.
