Early outcome of subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) in advanced parkinson disease in first trial of Iranian patients
Abstract Background: To improve the debilitating features of Parkinson disease (PD) different medical and surgical approaches are available. Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN-DBS) was appeared to be a promising method during last two decades. This study aimed to evaluate early motor outcomes of this procedure in first trial of Iranian patients . Methods: Thirty-seven...
متن کاملPallidal vs subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation in Parkinson disease.
BACKGROUND Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus interna (GPi) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) has been reported to relieve motor symptoms and levodopa-induced dyskinesia in patients with advanced Parkinson disease (PD). Although it has been suggested that stimulation of the STN may be superior to stimulation of the GPi, comparative trials are limited. OBJECTIVE To extend our rand...
متن کاملUnilateral Subthalamic Nucleus Stimulation in the Treatment of Asymmetric Parkinson"s Disease with Early Motor Complications.
AIM The aim of this study was to assess the results of unilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) stimulation for the treatment of Parkinson"s disease (PD) with marked asymmetry of parkinsonian motor symptoms and early motor complications. MATERIAL AND METHODS The clinical series consisted of 32 consecutive PD patients, in whom unilateral STN stimulation was performed. All patients were assessed ac...
متن کاملEffects of subthalamic nucleus stimulation and levodopa treatment on gait abnormalities in Parkinson disease.
BACKGROUND Stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus is proposed for the treatment of patients presenting with severe Parkinson disease. The effect on gait is not clearly established. OBJECTIVES To evaluate objectively the influence of bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation on gait in Parkinson disease and to compare it with the effects of levodopa treatment. METHODS Ten patients underwent ...
متن کاملImprovement in Parkinson disease by subthalamic nucleus stimulation based on electrode placement: effects of reimplantation.
BACKGROUND The misplacement of electrodes is a possible explanation for suboptimal response to bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) stimulation in patients with Parkinson disease. OBJECTIVE To evaluate whether reimplantation of electrodes in the STN can produce improvement in patients with poor results from surgery and with suspected electrode misplacement based on imaging findings. DESIGN P...
