Surgery to Remove a Blood Clot Around the Brain

Vermont rates for HCPCS 61312

The skull is opened to clear a pooled collection of blood that is pressing on the brain, lying either between the skull and the brain's tough outer covering or just beneath that covering. This version treats a clot over the large upper part of the brain. Releasing the pressure protects brain tissue from lasting damage.
