This Prospective Interventional Study will assess the efficacy of MPTLT in the UK.
We are establishing a National Study of MPTLT procedures, co-ordinating with all UK treatment centres to capture prospectively, details of all MPTLT surgical procedure and outcomes. This will create a National UK Registry of MPTLT, allowing us to comply with NICE requirements while adding to the quality of evidence available to support this minimally invasive therapy.
