Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) surgery is a treatment for a complication caused by the use of heparin, a blood-thinning medication. HIT leads to an increased risk of blood clotting, and in severe cases, surgery may be required to remove blood clots (thrombectomy) or address complications like limb ischemia or stroke.

Treatment typically involves stopping heparin, using alternative anticoagulants, and performing clot removal or bypass surgery when necessary. Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia surgery helps manage the risk of clot formation and prevent severe complications, ensuring proper blood circulation.
