A surgical device and method for removal of tissue, such as thrombus, from a vessel in the body. The device has a first tube with a distal open end and an inward directed stop and a second tube with an outward directed stop for engaging the inward directed stop and thereby regulating the relationship between a retrograde jet and the distal open end. Thrombus is dislodged, entrained, and broken into pieces which are evacuated through the first tube.
