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…Functional motor outcomes after globus pallidus internus deep brain stimulation in Huntington´s disease – A case report
Objective: The aim of this study was to analyse the motor outcome before and after 6 month follow-up in a HD patient treated by GPi-DBS.…Does GPi-DBS help non motor symptoms in cervical dystonia patients? A retrospective study of 17 patients
Objective: To study the efficacy of GPi DBS surgery in improving dystonia related severity, disability and pain as well as quality of life in medically…Results from a double-blind trial of pallidal DBS for Tourette’s syndrome: Are there any predictors of surgery outcome?
Objective: To explore whether individual patient characteristics can indicate response to treatment in a trial of bilateral globus pallidus internus (GPi) deep brain stimulation (DBS)…An international, randomized, sham controlled trial of focused ultrasound thalamotomy for essential tremor
Objective: To determine efficacy and safety of unilateral focused ultrasound thalamotomy for refractory essential tremor. Background: Recent advances in ultrasound transducer technology allow ultrasound to…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…
