Long-term effects of pallidal and thalamic deep brain stimulation in Myoclonus Dystonia.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Despite advances in the understanding of Huntington's disease (HD), treatment remains symptomatic. Multidisciplinary rehabilitation, however, appears to impact disease progression. Here we show the feasibility, safety and efficacy of a 9-month multidisciplinary rehabilitation programme in a small...
