Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Post-Infarct Dystonia.

abstract：:We examined the direct effect of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN-DBS) on levodopa-induced peak-dose dyskinesia in 45 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) without reducing the levodopa dosage during the early period after surgery. In 8 patients (18%), the dyskinesia was quickly attenuated by bi...
