Central Nervous System Lesioning Procedures For Dystonia In The Deep Brain Stimulation Era: A Systematic Review
Objective: To evaluate the contemporary clinical role of central nervous system (CNS) lesioning procedures for dystonia in the deep brain stimulation (DBS) era, when DBS…A Case of Tardive Dystonia Treated with Bilateral Radiofrequency Ablation and Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: This case report examines whether deep brain stimulation (DBS) can be considered a viable surgical option for patients with tardive dystonia who show insufficient…Exploring Pallidothalamotractotomy as an Option for Management of Refractory Dystonia following Failure of Pallidotomy
Objective: To assess the efficacy and safety of PTT as a rescue procedure after pallidotomy in two patients with refractory dystonia. Background: In cases of…GPi Lesioning vs. DBS: Does Targeting the Same Structure Differently Affect Cognition in Parkinson’s Disease?
Objective: To compare the cognitive and quality of life (QoL) outcomes of GPi-DBS and GPi-RF, investigating whether lesion-based approaches pose a greater cognitive burden over…Pallidotomy Reborn? Revisiting GPi Lesions in the Era of Neuro modulation for Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To compare motor outcomes, surgical considerations, and follow-up data between unilateral GPi-DBS and GPi-RF pallidotomy in Parkinson’s disease (PD), evaluating their long-term efficacy and…Radiofrequency Lesioning for hemidystonia: a systematic review
Objective: The aim of this systematic review is to summarize published reports on RL for hemidystonia and to evaluate clinical outcome. Background: Radiofrequency lesioning (RL)…Treatment of Severe Tardive Syndrome with Pallidotomy: A Case Report
Objective: To present a case of severe tardive syndrome (TS) successfully treated with MRI-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT) unilateral pallidotomy and discuss its implications.…Safety and effectiveness of staged bilateral MR-guided focused ultrasound pallidothalamic tractotomy for motor complications of Parkinson’s disease: study protocol
Objective: To describe the protocol of a study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) pallidothalamic tractotomy (PTT) as a staged…Intraventricular baclofen and bilateral pallidotomy in a pediatric patient with acquired generalized dystonia and refractory status dystonicus
Objective: To present management with intraventricular baclofen followed by bilateral pallidotomy in a 3-years-old child who presents a refractory status dystonicus secondary to hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy…Pallidotomy as a Therapeutic Option for Patients with Advanced Parkinson’s Disease: Case Study
Objective: The aim of this research is to assess unilateral pallidotomy as a surgical alternative for Parkinson's Disease (PD), emphasizing improvements in contralateral motor symptoms…
