Thrombectomy is a popular form of surgical treatment used to remove blood clots from veins and arteries. Normally, arteries carry arterial blood with oxygenated blood and nutrients for the body. In the case of a blood clot, the blood vessel wall becomes damaged and does not allow blood to pass through easily.
