Generally speaking, there are two surgical treatment options to remove the blood clot: burr hole drainage and craniotomy. During burr hole drainage, the neurosurgeon will create one or two small holes within the skull, followed by an incision in the dura if necessary, in order to drain the blood clot. Your doctor might advise surgical thrombectomy if you have a very large clot. Or, he or she may advise surgery if your blood clot is causing severe tissue injury. Surgery is not the only kind of treatment for a blood clot. Most people with blood clots are treated with medicines called blood thinners. You need to ask the doctor treating her to find the feasibility of surgery in her case, as all clots do not need surgery or are safe.
