A surgical apparatus for treating a blood clot in a vessel of a patient having an elongated member having an outer wall, a first hole at a distal portion and a second hole spaced proximally from the first hole positioned in a side wall. A first lumen is provided within the elongated member for blood flow through the second hole, through the lumen and exiting the first hole to maintain blood flow during treatment of the blood clot. An energy emitter emits energy to the blood clot or hardenings and a connector connects the energy emitter to an external energy source, wherein blood flows into the second hole positioned proximal of the blood clot and exits the first hole distal of the blood clot during activation of the energy emitter. In some instances when the apparatus is introduced from a retrograde ‘upstream” approach blood may flow through the device in the opposite direction.
