• About Arterial Thromboendarterectomy?
• Arterial Thromboendarterectomy is a treatment
  which involves the opening of an artery. It is
  basically performed to treat a cerebral vascular
  disease where there is a considerable reduction
  of blood supply to the brain. It is also carried
  out to cure peripheral vascular disease.
• The surgery helps in removing deadly chronic
  clots of blood from the blood vessels of the
  lungs which could not be treated with medication.

  removed. The old clotted material is more
  carefully deconstructed. During the surgery, the
  patient's heart might stop working, and the
  patient has to be placed on a heart-lung bypass
  machine.
