When to use it, what cases are suitable for its use, who can use it and how to use it remain debatable. Objective: Provide the information regarding the application of the HASS for hospital, neurosurgeon and interventionalist. Methods: We review the literatures of case reports and studies on the use of the hybrid angio-sugical suite along with application of HASS in our own practice. Results: Indications for using HASS on different types of cerebral vascular disease, including cerebral aneurysm, AVM, DAVF, carotid and vertebral stenosis/occlusion, are addressed. The application of HASS for other non-cerebral vascular diseases, such as trauma, spine and skullbase cases, is reviewed and discussed. Conclusion: HASS has made many surgical procedures safer and many difficult or previously untreatable conditions much more tractable and cost-effective. Other than used in cerebral vascular disease, HASS has much more applications, such as trauma, spine and other neurosurgical diseases.展开更多
