Globus pallidus deep brain stimulation in dystonia.
Globus pallidus deep brain stimulation (GPi-DBS) is a useful alternative in the treatment of dystonia. Patients selected for GPi-DBS were prospectively rated with the Unified Dystonia Rating Scale (UDRS). Also, "blinded" videotape assessments were performed. Eleven patients were identified. Compared with pre-DBS scores, there were improvements in mean total UDRS score (15.3%) and in the followi...
متن کاملGlobus Pallidus Interna Deep Brain Stimulation for Chorea-Acanthocytosis
Chorea-acanthocytosis (ChAc) is a rare hereditary disorder characterized by involuntary choreiform movements and erythrocytic acanthocytosis. Pharmacotherapy for control of involuntary movements has generally been of limited benefit. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) has recently been used for treatment of some refractory cases of ChAc. We report here on the effect of bilateral high-frequency DBS of...
متن کاملDeep brain stimulation of the internal segment of the globus pallidus in delayed runaway dyskinesia.
BACKGROUND Dyskinesias that occur during a period without medication after embryonic cell transplantation have been commonly reported in double-blind trials; however, to date, they have not been reported in the few patients who participated in open-label pilot studies. DESIGN Single case observation with preoperative and postoperative data, and intraoperative single-cell physiology. PATIENT...
متن کاملDeep brain stimulation electrode used for radiofrequency lesion of the globus pallidus internus in dystonia.
BACKGROUND There have recently been increasing case reports in the literature of deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes used for lesioning with satisfactory clinical success in the treatment of Parkinson disease and tremor. METHODS After preliminary experiments of radiofrequency (RF) lesioning with a quadripolar DBS lead, a paediatric case of generalized primary dystonia was treated by RF le...
متن کاملBilateral deep-brain stimulation of the globus pallidus in primary generalized dystonia.
BACKGROUND Severe forms of dystonia respond poorly to medical treatment. Deep-brain stimulation is a reversible neurosurgical procedure that has been used for the treatment of dystonia, but assessment of its efficacy has been limited to open studies. METHODS We performed a prospective, controlled, multicenter study assessing the efficacy and safety of bilateral pallidal stimulation in 22 pati...
