Vascular cutter devices, systems, and methods are provided to effectively cut and remove all types of thrombus and atheroma tissue, whether soft, tough, or hard, and can do so with a reduced risk of suffering vessel injuries while avoiding an undesirable volume of blood loss during procedures. Thrombectomy systems having curved tubular cutting devices, and methods of using them, are provided. These systems, devices, and methods can (i) effectively cut and remove a variety of thrombus tissue from blood vessels, including soft, tough, and hard tissue; (ii) safely self-collect and remove tissue particles to avoid release of emboli; (iii) effectively treat a blood vessel with a reduced risk of suffering vessel injuries that can lead to increased stenosis; and (iv) effectively reduce blood loss during a procedure.
