Thalamic deep brain stimulation for cerebellar outflow tremor and midbrain tremor: a case series
Objective: To review outcomes of the thalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with cerebellar outflow and midbrain tremor. Background: DBS of the ventral intermediate…Deep brain stimulation in the treatment of cerebellar tremor in young patients
Objective: To investigate the efficacy of DBS on drug-resistant tremor secondary to alterations of the cerebellum or the dentato-rubro-thalamic pathways. Background: Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)…Prospective evaluation of pallidal deep brain stimulation in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To prospectively evaluate the effect of bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation (DBS) on motor symptoms, activities of daily living and quality of life in…Finger tapping distance in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus changes in parallel with frontal lobe function
Objective: We assessed upper extremity function of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) patients by quantitative finger tapping test and checked the correlation with other clinical…Surgical replacement of implantable pulse generators in deep brain stimulation: Adverse events and risk factors in a multicenter cohort
Objective: To investigate the incidence of adverse events and postoperative infections of IPG replacements in a multicenter cohort. Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a…Idiopathic delayed-onset edema surrounding deep brain stimulation leads: Insights from a case series and systematic literature review
Objective: We present a multicenter case series of patients with idiopathic delayed-onset edema (IDE) surrounding the deep brain stimulation (DBS) leads, and a systematic literature…Articulography reveals disturbed speech motor control in ET patients treated with VIM-DBS
Objective: We investigate the effect of VIM-DBS on speech production in patients with ET. Background: Dysarthria is a common side effect of VIM-DBS. In recent…Bacterial biofilm formation on neurostimulation systems
Objective: The aim of this study is to identify specifically the DNA of bacterial biofilm on neurostimulation systems using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Background: Bacterial…Effectiveness of bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation in a patient with dystonia associated to neurodegenerative ataxia: Follow-up to 18 months
Objective: CASE REPORT Background: The dystonia like others movement disorder may be included in neurodegenerative ataxia syndrome, in addition to cerebellar dysfunction. The pallidal stimulation…Effects of deep brain stimulation in the nucleus entopeduncularis on neuronal network activity after apomorphine-induced deficient sensorimotor gating in a rat model
Objective: Deficient sensorimotor gating induced by dopamine receptor agonists is used as an endophenotype for certain neuropsychiatric disorders, such as Tourette´s syndrome (TS), schizophrenia, and…
