The Hybrid Operative Suite with Intraoperative Biplane Rotational Angiography in Pediatric Cerebrovascular Neurosurgery: Utility and Lessons Learned

Conclusion: The hybrid neuroangiography surgical suite is a safe option for pediatric cerebrovascular pathologies requiring combined surgical and endovascular intervention. Hybrid cases can be completed within the same anesthesia session and reduce the need for return to the operating room for resection or surveillance angiography. High-quality intraoperative angiography enables diagnostic confirmation under a single procedure, mitigating risk of morbidity and accelerating recovery. Effective multidisciplinary planning enables preoperative angiograms to be completed to inform the operative plan immediately prior to definitive resection.
