    Deep brain stimulation for choreoathetosis in cerebral palsy: Pallidal versus thalamic stimulation

    M. Wolf, C. Blahak, A. Saryyeva, C. Schrader, J. Krauss (Mannheim, Germany)

    Objective: We aimed to assess, whether the thalamic ventral intermediate nucleus (Vim) might be an alternative target for DBS in choreoathetosis. Background: Choreoathetosis is common…
