Mechanical Clot Removal From A Vein

Missouri rates for HCPCS 37187

A catheter-based device is threaded into a vein to physically break up and remove a blood clot, often combined with clot-dissolving medication delivered directly at the site, all guided by live x-ray imaging. This approach restores blood flow through a vein blocked by a clot without open surgery. It is typically used for a significant clot causing swelling, pain, or circulation problems in the affected limb.
