Thromboendarterectomy is performed to open an artery that is occluded (obstructed) by a thrombus (blood clot). The procedure is performed through an external (from outside of the body) incision rather than through a blood vessel. The occluding thrombus is then removed.

But if the clots don't respond to medication, it can lead to scar tissue, which causes increased blood pressure in your lungs and makes breathing difficult. CTEPH can also cause small vessels in your lungs to become narrow and stiff.

Pulmonary thromboendarterectomy (PTE) is a complex surgery to remove long-term blood clots from arteries in your lungs that can't be treated with medication. These blockages occur due to chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH), a rare complication in people who've had blood clots in their lungs

End points for univariate and multivariate analyses of risk factors were reperfusion pulmonary edema leading to respiratory insufficiency as defined by ventilator dependency (greater than or equal to 5 days) (31.5%, 39/124) and hospital mortality (12.6%, 16/127).

Recent studies indicate a thromboendarterectomy is effective in preventing stroke, even among those patients who had no warning signs except narrowed arteries detected by their doctors on a routine exam. A thromboendarterectomy is generally well tolerated and involves a one- to two-day hospital stay.
