Interleaved Stimulation for Freezing of Gait in Advanced Parkinson’s Disease: A Pilot Study
Objective: To assess the effect of Interleaved Stimulation (ILS) in patients receiving subthalamic nucleus-Deep Brain Stimulation (STN-DBS), with Freezing of gait (FOG) unresponsive to medication and conventional…Combined Surgical Therapies for Optimal Management of Advanced Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: We report a case of a patient with advanced PD who began LCIG for refractory motor fluctuations while continuing longstanding STN-DBS. Background: LCIG and…Somnolence as untoward stimulation effect in subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) for Parkinson’s disease (PD)
Objective: Excessive daytime sleepiness is a relatively common feature in PD. However, it has not been reported as a side effect of STN DBS. We…Long term tremor benefit from cyst formation as a complication of DBS surgery in a patient with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To describe the unexpected, beneficial effects of cyst formation as a complication of sub-thalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery in a patient…Twiddler Syndrome in Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: Twiddler syndrome is one of the major complications in DBS treatment. Background: The patient intentionally and subconsciously spins internal pulse generator Spinning generally causes…Improvement of apraxia of eyelid opening in a patient with Parkinson’s disease following the change of the implantable pulse generator for subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation .
Objective: To report a patient with Parkinson's disease (PD) in whom apraxia of eyelid opening (ALO) improved after the change of another implantable pulse generator…Tear tumor necrosis factor-alpha levels in patients with Parkinson’s disease: The effect of deep brain stimulation
Objective: To evaluate tear tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) levels in samples of two Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients treated with subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation…Feedback Controlled DBS in Parkinson’s Disease using Electrocorticography
Objective: To provide a proof of principle implementation of closed loop DBS in an office setting using narrowband γ and β power as modulatory signals…Pathological crying induced by deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus in Parkinsons’ disease
Objective: To report on a patient with Parkinsons’ disease (PD) who developed pathologic crying (PC) following chronic deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus…Dynamic of symptoms of dopamine dysregulation syndrome after deep brain stimulation in patients with Parkinson`s disease
Objective: Assessment of the dynamics of dopamine dysregulation syndrome in patients with Parkinson`s disease after deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus compared with the…
