The surgical removal of a blood clot from a blood vessel.<\/p>\n

\n

A surgical operation to remove a blood clot.<\/p>\n

\n

Surgical removal of a thrombus (blood clot) from a blood vessel to restore circulation to the affected part.<\/p>\n

\n

Coagulation factor, formed in plasma from prothrombin, calcium, and thromboplastin, that acts to change fibrinogen to fibrin, necessary for a blood clot.<\/p>\n

\n

A surgical procedure performed with a catheter to remove a thrombus (blood clot) that has formed in a blood vessel and is blocking blood flow through it. The procedure is typically performed with a catheter (thin tube) tipped with an inflatable balloon. The catheter is inserted into the blood vessel above the clot, then the balloon is inflated. The catheter is drawn back out, pulling the thrombus with it.<\/p>\n

\n

A surgical procedure in which a blood clot (thrombus) is removed from an artery or vein.<\/p>\n

\n

The extraction of a blood clot (thrombus) causing a blockage in a blood vessel. This procedure is conducted urgently in case of a significant artery blockage or as a preventative measure when there’s a risk of an embolus (a fragment) breaking free. Prior to the surgery, the location of the clot is determined through angiography, and the patient might receive anticoagulant medications.<\/p>\n
