Abstract

This article presents a novel technical solution to the surgery of cerebrovascular diseases − a hybrid neurosurgery operating room. Operation rooms of this type represent a state-of-the-art neurosurgical operating room including an angiography instrument, a surgical microscope, and a neuronavigation system. Hybrid operation rooms combine endovascular and microsurgical methods within a single operative procedure. We present the technical and organizational points, advantages and disadvantages, and results from the treatment of patients with complex cerebrovascular diseases in hybrid operating rooms.
