Pulmonary endarterectomy is a curative and complex surgery. It involves placing the patient on heart-lung bypass machine support that will take over the function of the heart and lungs, and to allow the doctors to carefully remove the clots from the lungs. The whole operation takes about seven to eight hours and is undertaken by specially trained doctors and support staff, working closely as a team.
