Deep brain stimulation for dystonia.
The few controlled studies that have been carried out have shown that bilateral internal globus pallidum stimulation is a safe and long-term effective treatment for hyperkinetic disorders. However, most recent published data on deep brain stimulation (DBS) for dystonia, applied to different targets and patients, are still mainly from uncontrolled case reports (especially for secondary dystonia)...
متن کاملDeep brain stimulation of globuspallidusinternus for DYT1 positive primary generalized dystonia
Background : Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globuspallidusinternus (GPi) is recommended as a promising technique for the management of the primary generalized dystonia (PGD) with DYT1 gene mutation. We present the first report of DBS results in Iranian patients with DYT1 positive PGD. Methods : Nine patients who suffered from severely disabling DYT1 positive PGD consecutively were recr...
متن کاملLow-Frequency Deep Brain Stimulation for Dystonia: Lower is Not Always Better
BACKGROUND It has been observed that low-frequency stimulation (LFS) may be effective for dystonia, and the use of LFS may alleviate the need for frequent battery changes in a subset of patients. The aim of this study was to analyze LFS as a strategy to treat deep brain stimulation (DBS) patients with various dystonias. METHODS Subjects had to receive a minimum of 6 months of clinical follow-...
متن کاملDeep brain stimulation for cervical dystonia.
I read with interest the recent case report by Chang and colleagues on unilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus palli-dus internus (GPi) in a patient with delayed-onset posttraumatic cervical dystonia. 1 I congratulate the authors reporting another patient with cervical dystonia responding to GPi DBS. The unique feature in their case is that unilateral stimulation only was used. Th...
متن کاملGlobus pallidus deep brain stimulation in dystonia.
Globus pallidus deep brain stimulation (GPi-DBS) is a useful alternative in the treatment of dystonia. Patients selected for GPi-DBS were prospectively rated with the Unified Dystonia Rating Scale (UDRS). Also, "blinded" videotape assessments were performed. Eleven patients were identified. Compared with pre-DBS scores, there were improvements in mean total UDRS score (15.3%) and in the followi...
