VOP/ZI deep brain stimulation for the relief of tremor in multiple sclerosis
Objective: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of electrical chronic stimulation of ventralis oralis posterior and zona incerta (VOP/ZI) in 3 subjects affected by severely disabling…When DBS can be of benefit in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To report on a patient with HD and disabling truncal dystonia who was treated with bilateral GPi DBS. Background: HD is an autosomal-dominant disorder…Sweet spot of antidystonic effect in pallidal neurostimulation
Objective: We investigated Volumes of Neural Activation (VNAs) in dystonia subjects under effective bilateral pallidum deep brain stimulation (DBS). We aimed to disentangle the sweet…Phenomenology of dyskinesias induced by subthalamic stimulation in Tourette syndrome
Objective: To describe the phenomenology of dyskinesias induced by subthalamic (STN) stimulation in refractory Tourette syndrome (TS). Background: Dyskinesias occurring following hemorrhagic events in the…Stereotactic surgery targeting on ventral oral posterior/ventral intermediate (Vop/Vim) in patients with upper limb dystonia: Neuronal activity and optimal effective site
Objective: To evaluate the neural activity at the optimal site of ablation or deep brain stimulation (DBS), targeting on caudal Zona incerta (cZi) through ventral…Deep brain stimulation outcomes for dystonia in adult and pediatric patients at Gillette Children’s Specialty Healthcare
Objective: Gillette Children's Specialty Healthcare is a non-profit independent hospital whose aim is to provide care to medically complicated patients with a special focus on…High voltage stimulation of the VIM thalamus mimicking PSP in a patient with ET + PD
Objective: To report a case of an 81 year-old male with ventral intermediate nucleus (VIM) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for essential tremor (ET) who developed…Focusing precision and lesion size in cerebello-thalamo-tractotomy by MR imaging-guided high intensity focused ultrasound (MRgFUS)
Objective: Focusing precision in tcMRgFUS tractotomy depends on the ability of the treatment system to compensate for acoustic field distortions induced by the patient skull.…Safety of deep brain stimulation for movement disorders: A single-centre long-term standardized recording and analysis
Objective: To analyze the long-term safety of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) procedures for patients with movement disorders. Background: DBS is currently indicated to treat several…Thalamic-subthalamic deep brain stimulation for refractory orthostatic tremor: A report of 3 cases
Objective: To report a case series of thalamic-subthalamic deep brain stimulation for the treatment of refractory orthostatic tremor. Background: Orthostatic tremor (OT) is a rare,…
