متن کاملDelayed Onset Eye Opening Apraxia due to Progression of Brain Atrophy following Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation: A Case Report
Eye opening apraxia (EOA) has been described in literature as a complication of deep brain stimulation (DBS), especially after electrode implantation in the subthalamic nucleus (STN). EOA can be either worsened or alleviated by DBS depending on the etiology. Herein, we report a rare case where the progression of brain atrophy may have contributed to the delayed onset of EOA. The patient, a 73-y...
