Removing the clot should have been a major DUH. Leaving it in there seems like it’s merely delaying the inevitable.

25 years ago, in a Issac Asmovs Science Fiction magazine (monthly), there was a futuristic story about a robot named CORA whose sole purpose in ‘life’ was to swim through the arteries of the man in the story. ‘Her’ entire existance consisted of locating and dissolving clots.
I have looked in vain for years to find that story again.

Some years back I remember reading about the use of lasers to clean 'em out instead of stents or balloon angioplasty.
