BackgroundDeep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN DBS) reduces Parkinson disease (PD) motor symptoms but has unexplained, variable effects on mood.ObjectiveThe study tested the hypothesis that pre-existing mood and/or anxiety disorders or increased symptom severity negatively affects mood response to STN DBS.MethodsThirty-eight PD participants with bilateral STN DBS and on PD medications were interviewed with Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV-TR Axis I Disorders (SCID) and completed Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Spielberger State Anxiety Inventory (SSAI) self-reports. Subsequently, during OFF and optimal ON (clinical settings) STN DBS conditions and while off PD medications, motor function was assessed with the United Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS, part III), and participants rated their mood with Visual Analogue Scales (VAS), and again completed SSAI. VAS mood variables included anxiety, apathy, valence and emotional arousal.ResultsSTN DBS improved UPDRS scores and mood. Unexpectedly, PD participants diagnosed with current anxiety or mood disorders experienced greater STN DBS-induced improvement in mood than those diagnosed with remitted disorders or who were deemed as having never met threshold criteria for diagnosis. BDI and SSAI scores did not modulate mood response to STN DBS, indicating that clinical categorical diagnosis better differentiates mood response to STN DBS than self-rated symptom severity. SCID diagnosis, BDI and SSAI scores did not modulate motor response to STN DBS.ConclusionsPD participants diagnosed with current mood or anxiety disorders are more sensitive to STN DBS-induced effects on mood, possibly indicating altered basal ganglia circuitry in this group. 相似文献

Behavioral disturbances have been reported with subthalamic (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) treatment in Parkinson's disease (PD). We report correlative functional imaging (fMRI) of mood and motor responses induced by successive right and left DBS. A 36-year-old woman with medically refractory PD and a history of clinically remitted depression underwent uncomplicated implantation of bilateral STN DBS. High-frequency stimulation of the left electrode improved motor symptoms. Unexpectedly, right DBS alone elicited several reproducible episodes of acute depressive dysphoria. Structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) imaging was carried out with sequential individual electrode stimulation. The electrode on the left was within the inferior STN, whereas the right electrode was marginally superior and lateral to the intended STN target within the Fields of Forel/zona incerta. fMRI image analysis (Analysis of Functional NeuroImages, AFNI) contrasting OFF versus ON stimulation identified significant lateralized blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) signal changes with DBS (P < 0.001). Left DBS primarily showed changes in motor regions: increases in premotor and motor cortex, ventrolateral thalamus, putamen, and cerebellum as well as decreases in sensorimotor/supplementary motor cortex. Right DBS showed similar but less extensive change in motor regions. More prominent were the unique increases in superior prefrontal cortex, anterior cingulate (Brodmann's area [BA] 24), anterior thalamus, caudate, and brainstem, and marked widespread decreases in medial prefrontal cortex (BA 9/10). The mood disturbance resolved spontaneously in 4 weeks despite identical stimulation parameters. Transient depressive mood induced by subcortical DBS stimulation was correlated with changes in mesolimbic cortical structures. This case provides new evidence supporting cortical segregation of motor and nonmotor cortico-basal ganglionic systems that may converge in close proximity at the level of the STN and the adjacent white matter tracts (Fields of Forel/zona incerta). 相似文献

OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND: Patients with medically refractory Parkinson's disease (PD) obtain significant clinical benefit from subthalamic nucleus (STN) stimulation. The degree to which a successful outcome relates to the anatomic location of the stimulating electrode has not yet been clearly established. Many studies have attempted to correlate the clinical result with the electrode location using postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and there have been a few that used autopsy-determined locations. In this report, we describe long-term clinical follow-up in a patient with autopsy-determined electrode tip anatomic location. METHODS: A 67-year-old patient with a 27-year history of idiopathic PD complicated by disabling motor fluctuations and dopaminergic dyskinesias underwent bilateral STN deep brain stimulation (DBS). He was prospectively followed in a long-term clinical protocol until his death 40 months after electrode placement. Postoperative magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and postmortem studies of this patient's brain were performed to localize DBS tip locations. RESULTS: STN stimulation produced improvement of the patient's motor fluctuations, dyskinesias and clinical motor performance, especially appendicular tremors, rigidity and bradykinesia. MRI showed the electrode tips to be within 2 mm of the intended target. Postmortem brain analysis identified the right DBS tip location at the dorsomedial edge of the STN, with the left electrode in the vicinity (but not within) the STN. Chronic DBS elicited minor reactive changes were confined to the immediate vicinity of the electrode tracks. The pathological analysis demonstrated numerous cortical Lewy bodies and degenerative encephalopathy, establishing the diagnosis of transitional type diffuse Lewy body disease (DLBD) rather than simple PD. CONCLUSION: This patient obtained clinical benefit from STN stimulation typical of that seen for most PD patients. Both the MR analysis and the autopsy demonstrated electrode placement at or outside the boundaries of the STN, suggesting that that clinical efficacy may not depend on electrode location within the central region of the STN. 相似文献

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a novel and effective surgical intervention for refractory Parkinson's disease (PD). The authors review the current literature to identify the clinical correlates associated with subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS-induced hypomania/mania in PD patients. Ventromedial electrode placement has been most consistently implicated in the induction of STN DBS-induced mania. There is some evidence of symptom amelioration when electrode placement is switched to a more dorsolateral contact. Additional clinical correlates may include unipolar stimulation, higher voltage (>3 V), male sex, and/or early-onset PD. STN DBS-induced psychiatric adverse events emphasize the need for comprehensive psychiatric presurgical evaluation and follow-up in PD patients. Animal studies and prospective clinical research, combined with advanced neuroimaging techniques, are needed to identify clinical correlates and underlying neurobiological mechanisms of STN DBS-induced mania. Such working models would serve to further our understanding of the neurobiological underpinnings of mania and contribute valuable new insight toward development of future DBS mood-stabilization therapies. 相似文献

Comparative effects of unilateral and bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation. 总被引:20,自引:0,他引:20
OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of unilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) with bilateral STN DBS in advanced PD. METHODS: Our initial 10 consecutive patients with medication-refractory motor fluctuations and levodopa-induced dyskinesias undergoing chronic bilateral STN DBS underwent a standardized evaluation of unilateral and bilateral STN DBS in the medication-off state 6 to 18 months after electrode implantation. RESULTS: Bilateral STN DBS improved the mean total Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale motor score by 54%, whereas unilateral stimulation improved motor scores only 23%. Unilateral STN DBS improved postural stability and gait 14%, other axial motor features 19%, and overall parkinsonism in limbs contralateral to stimulation by 46%, including an 86% improvement in contralateral tremor. However, bilateral STN DBS resulted in greater improvement in each of these domains, including limb function, i.e., the reduction in scores from the limbs on one side was greater with bilateral than with unilateral stimulation of the contralateral STN. CONCLUSIONS: Bilateral STN DBS improves parkinsonism considerably more than unilateral STN DBS; bilateral simultaneous electrode implantation may be the most appropriate surgical option for patients with significant bilateral disability. Unilateral STN DBS results in moderate improvement in all aspects of off-period parkinsonism and improves tremor as much as is typically reported with DBS of the ventral intermedius nucleus of the thalamus (Vim). For this reason, STN DBS may be a more appropriate choice than Vim DBS or thalamotomy for parkinsonian tremor. Some patients with highly asymmetric tremor-dominant PD might be appropriately treated with unilateral instead of bilateral STN DBS. 相似文献

Studies describing subthalamic (STN) local field potentials (LFPs) recorded during deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), within the first month after DBS electrode implant, show that DBS modulates specific STN oscillations: whereas low-frequency (LF) oscillations (2-7Hz) increase, beta oscillations (8-30Hz) variably decrease. No data show whether LFPs remain stable for longer than one month after DBS surgery. Having long-term information is essential especially for use as a long-term feedback control signal for adaptive DBS systems. To evaluate how STN activity behaves years after prolonged chronic stimulation in PD we studied STN LFPs at rest without DBS and during ongoing DBS, in 11 parkinsonian patients 7years (7.54±1.04) after STN electrode implantation for DBS (hyperchronic group) and in 16 patients 3days after STN electrode implantation (acute group). STN LF and beta-band LFPs recorded at rest at 7years contained almost the same information as those recorded at 3days. STN recordings showed similar LFP responses to DBS in the acute and hyperchronic stages: whereas during ongoing DBS the LF power band increased for the whole population, beta activity decreased only in nuclei with significant beta activity at baseline. The LF/beta power ratio in all nuclei changed in both study groups, suggesting that this variable might be an even more informative marker of PD than the single LF and beta bands. Because STN LFP activity patterns and STN LFP responses to DBS stay almost unchanged for years after DBS electrode implantation they should provide a consistent feedback control signal for adaptive DBS. 相似文献

High-frequency deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) improves the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Opposite changes in mood, such as mania or depression, have been reported after surgery, but it is not known whether these side effects are specifically related to STN DBS. To learn whether STN DBS also influences the limbic loop, we investigated acute subjective psychotropic effects related to levodopa or bilateral STN DBS. After a median postoperative follow-up of 12 months, 50 PD patients completed the Addiction Research Center Inventory (ARCI), assessing subjective psychotropic effects in four conditions: off-drug/on-stimulation; off-drug/off-stimulation; on-drug/off-stimulation; and on-drug/on-stimulation. Both levodopa and STN DBS improved all the ARCI subscales, indicating subjective feelings of well being, euphoria, increase in motivation, and decrease in fatigue, anxiety, and tension. A suprathreshold dose of levodopa was significantly more effective than STN DBS, using the same electrical parameters as for chronic stimulation, on four of the five ARCI subscales. We concluded that 1) both STN DBS and levodopa have synergistic acute beneficial psychotropic effects in PD, 2) the psychotropic effects of both treatments need to be considered in the long-term management of chronic STN DBS, and 3) the results indicate an involvement of the limbic STN in mood disorders of PD. 相似文献

Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) is an effective surgical treatment for Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent studies demonstrated that pathological oscillations are seen largely within the dorsolateral portion of the STN, which is the same location that predicts optimal therapeutic benefit with DBS; however, the precise nature of the relationship between these two phenomena remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore localization of oscillatory activity in relation to the optimal contacts of DBS which results in the best motor improvement. We studied 23 PD patients who underwent electrode implantation into the STN for motor symptoms.Microelectrode recordings were taken from the STN during surgery and neuronal activity was analyzed offline. Spectral characteristics were calculated. Clinical outcomes were evaluated pre- and post-STN DBS implantation using the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS III). The position of optimal electrode contacts was assessed by postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and was compared to the location of oscillatory activity within the STN as well as its dorsal margin (where STN neuronal activity was first detected). Of the total 188 neurons obtained, 51 (27.1%) neurons showed significant oscillatory activity. Of those, 47 (92.2%) were localized in the dorsal portion of the STN. Furthermore, there was no significant difference between the averaged coordinates of the position of 40 optimal contacts and the coordinates of the dorsal margin of the STN. The data indicate that the positions of the best contacts correlate with the locations of the oscillatory neurons supporting the prediction that stimulation of the dorsolateral oscillatory region leads to an effective clinical outcome for STN DBS surgery. 相似文献

We report the case of a patient suffering from pharmacotherapy‐resistant bilateral progressive myoclonic epilepsy (PME) showing a beneficial response upon selective deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the substantia nigra pars reticulata. As an individual experimental therapeutic approach, we implanted DBS electrodes in the transitional zone between the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr). Electrode placement allowed for a selective stimulation of either the STN, SNr, or both targets. Postoperatively, we observed a moderate subjective and objective improvement in positive and negative myoclonus by high‐frequency DBS of the STN/SNr transitional zone. However, a systematic exploration of different stimulation settings revealed that monopolar stimulation of the substantia nigra alone was more effective than high‐frequency monopolar DBS of either the motor STN (monopolar) or stimulation of both targets (STN/SNr). This observation confirms earlier findings showing that patients with PME benefit from high‐frequency DBS. However, in contrast to previous reports stimulating the STN/SNr transitional zone, our patient showed the most significant effect upon selective stimulation of the SNr. We propose that in patients undergoing DBS for myoclonus, at least one electrode contact should be placed in the SNr allowing for selective monopolar stimulation of this target. 相似文献

BackgroundDeep Brain Stimulation (DBS) targeting the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and globus pallidus interna (GPi) is an effective treatment for cardinal motor symptoms and motor complications in Parkinson’s Disease (PD). However, malpositioned DBS electrodes can result in suboptimal therapeutic response.ObjectiveWe explored whether recovery of the H-reflex—an easily measured electrophysiological analogue of the stretch reflex, known to be altered in PD—could serve as an adjunct biomarker of suboptimal versus optimal electrode position during STN- or GPi-DBS implantation.MethodsChanges in soleus H-reflex recovery were investigated intraoperatively throughout awake DBS target refinement across 26 nuclei (14 STN). H-reflex recovery was evaluated during microelectrode recording (MER) and macrostimulation at multiple locations within and outside target nuclei, at varying stimulus intensities.ResultsFollowing MER, H-reflex recovery normalized (i.e., became less Parkinsonian) in 21/26 nuclei, and correlated with on-table motor improvement consistent with an insertional effect. During macrostimulation, H-reflex recovery was maximally normalized in 23/26 nuclei when current was applied at the location within the nucleus producing optimal motor benefit. At these optimal sites, H-reflex normalization was greatest at stimulation intensities generating maximum motor benefit free of stimulation-induced side effects, with subthreshold or suprathreshold intensities generating less dramatic normalization.ConclusionH-reflex recovery is modulated by stimulation of the STN or GPi in patients with PD and varies depending on the location and intensity of stimulation within the target nucleus. H-reflex recovery shows potential as an easily-measured, objective, patient-specific, adjunct biomarker of suboptimal versus optimal electrode position during DBS surgery for PD. 相似文献

BackgroundSubthalamic (STN) and globus pallidus (GP) deep brain stimulation (DBS) have been previously shown to be efficacious in the treatment of selected Parkinson patients with medication resistant motor fluctuations and/or tremor. Deep brain stimulation of the STN has been implicated with more cognitive and mood side effects as compared to GP DBS; however, more studies are needed to better understand possible target differences. Previously, Mikos et al. [1] reported worsening of verbal fluency depending on the stimulation location within the STN region.Objective/hypothesisThe current study applied the methods used by Mikos et al. (2011) to a different sample of Parkinson patients who underwent GP DBS. Based on differences in the size and functional somatotopy between structures (GP 412 mm3 vs. STN 167 mm3), we hypothesized that there would be a less robust relationship between volume of tissue activated, fluency performance, and stimulation contact within the GP compared to what was reported in the STN.MethodsPatient-specific DBS models were created and the volume of tissue activated within the GP was calculated. These data were correlated with patients' verbal fluency performance at dorsal, optimal, and ventral stimulation contacts.ResultsIn contrast to STN findings, there was no significant relationship between stimulation location and fluency performance in patients who received GP DBS.Conclusion(s)These results suggest that fluency may be less sensitive to stimulation location in the globus pallidus and thus there may be more flexibility in terms of DBS programming with GP DBS patients. 相似文献

This study describes the pathological findings in the brain of a patient with Parkinson's disease (PD) treated with bilateral subthalamic high-frequency deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) for 29 months prior to death. After routine neuropathological examination, tissue blocks containing the electrode tracts, the subthalamic nucleus (STN), the substantia nigra and the pre-frontal cortex were paraffin embedded and cut into 5- μ m-thick serial sections and stained with several conventional staining methods and immunohistochemistry. Bilateral nigral depigmentation, cell loss and Lewy body formation confirmed the diagnosis of PD. Microscopic evaluation furthermore confirmed the location of the electrodes in the STN. The electrode tracts were surrounded by a 150- μ m-wide glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP)-positive capsule consisting of a thin collagen layer lining the lumen of the tract, whilst an area with few cells and axons constituted the capsule wall towards the surrounding normal brain tissue. The brain tissue appeared normal outside the capsule boundaries with no difference in areas of stimulation compared with areas of no stimulation. Our results correspond with previous studies performed after fewer months of STN DBS and indicate mild histopathological changes in the vicinity of the electrode tract, appearing to result from the electrode placement and not from the electrical stimulation. 相似文献

BackgroundDeep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is a highly effective surgical treatment for patients with advanced Parkinson disease (PD). Combining 7.0-Tesla (7T) T2- and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) sequences allows for selective segmenting of the motor part of the STN and, thus, for possible optimization of DBS.Materials and Methods7T T2 and DWI sequences were obtained, and probabilistic segmentation of motor, associative, and limbic STN segments was performed. Left- and right-sided motor outcome (Movement Disorders Society Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale) scores were used for evaluating the correspondence between the active electrode contacts in selectively segmented STN and the clinical DBS effect. The Bejjani line was reviewed for crossing of segments.ResultsA total of 50 STNs were segmented in 25 patients and proved highly feasible. Although the highest density of motor connections was situated in the dorsolateral STN for all patients, the exact partitioning of segments differed considerably. For all the active electrode contacts situated within the predominantly motor-connected segment of the STN, the average hemi-body Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale motor improvement was 80%; outside this segment, it was 52% (p < 0.01). The Bejjani line was situated in the motor segment for 32 STNs.ConclusionThe implementation of 7T T2 and DWI segmentation of the STN in DBS for PD is feasible and offers insight into the location of the motor segment. Segmentation-guided electrode placement is likely to further improve motor response in DBS for PD. However, commercially available DBS software for postprocessing imaging would greatly facilitate widespread implementation. 相似文献

Background: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is effective in alleviating Parkinson’s disease (PD) symptoms (tremor, rigidity and bradykinesia) and may improve gait and postural impairment associated with the disease. However, improvement of gait is not always as predictable as the clinical outcome. This may relate to the type of gait impairment or localization of the active DBS contact. Methods: The active contact was visualized on peri‐operative magnetic resonance imaging in 22 patients with idiopathic PD, consecutively treated with bilateral STN DBS. Stimulation site was grouped as either in the dorsal/ventral STN or medial/lateral hereof and anterior/posterior STN or medial/lateral hereof. The localization was compared with relative improvement of clinical outcome (UPDRS‐III). In 10 patients, quantitative gait analyses were performed, and the improvement in gait performance was compared with stimulation site in the STN. Results: Of 44 active contacts, 77% were inside the nucleus, 23% were medial hereof. Stimulation of the dorsal half improved UPDRS‐III significantly more than ventral STN DBS (P = 0.02). However, there were no differences between anterior and posterior stimulation in the dorsal STN. Step velocity and length improved significantly more with dorsal stimulation compared with ventral stimulation (P = 0.03 and P = 0.02). Balance during gait was also more improved with dorsal stimulation compared with ventral stimulation. Conclusions: Deep brain stimulation of the dorsal STN is superior to stimulation of the ventral STN. Possible different effects of stimulation inside the nucleus underline the need for exact knowledge of the active stimulation site position to target the most effective area. 相似文献

We report a patient with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) who developed a recurrence of major depression with psychotic features after bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) dramatically improved the depression without shifting electrode position or damaging the DBS hardware. This case suggests that ECT can be a safe and effective option for severe depression in PD patients treated with STN DBS. 相似文献

Acute severe depression induced by intraoperative stimulation of the substantia nigra: a case report
Blomstedt P Hariz MI Lees A Silberstein P Limousin P Yelnik J Agid Y 《Parkinsonism & related disorders》2008,14(3):253-256
We present a 62 years old man with Parkinson's disease (PD) who underwent bilateral stimulation in the subthalamic nucleus (STN). During the intraoperative evaluation, stimulation through the lowest contact in the right STN area, induced an acute depressive state, during which the patient was crying and expressing that he did not want to live. The patient returned to his normal state of mood within seconds after the cessation of stimulation. Repeated blinded stimulations resulted in the same response. Immediate postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed that the lowest contact of the right electrode was located in the substantia nigra. 相似文献

To determine whether the immediate response to electrode implantation (micro lesion effect, MLE) in the internal segment of the globus pallidus (GPi) predicts symptom improvement with deep brain stimulation (DBS) at 6 months in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) or generalized dystonia. Electrode implantation in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) prior to electrical stimulation has been reported to predict a beneficial effect of DBS in patients with PD, but whether this is also the case for the GPi in either PD or dystonia patients has not been established. We studied 20 patients (11 with PD and 9 with dystonia) who underwent electrode implantation in the GPi. Effects were assessed using standardized scales after 24 hours, weekly for 3 weeks prior to starting DBS, and after 6 months of DBS. 10 of 11 PD and 8 of 9 dystonia cases who benefited from electrode implantation also showed improvement in all motor and disability scores after 6 months of DBS of the GPi. One dystonia patient who did not show MLE benefited from DBS. The presence of MLE after electrode implantation in the GPi may help predict motor benefit from DBS in PD and generalized dystonia patients. © 2009 Movement Disorder Society 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus interna (GPi) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) has been reported to relieve motor symptoms and levodopa-induced dyskinesia in patients with advanced Parkinson disease (PD). Although it has been suggested that stimulation of the STN may be superior to stimulation of the GPi, comparative trials are limited. OBJECTIVE: To extend our randomized, blinded pilot comparison of the safety and efficacy of STN and GPi stimulation in patients with advanced PD. DESIGN: This study represents the combined results from our previously published, randomized, blinded, parallel-group pilot study and additional patients enrolled in our single-center extension study. SETTING: Oregon Health and Science University in Portland.Patients Twenty-three patients with idiopathic PD, levodopa-induced dyskinesia, and response fluctuations were randomized to implantation of bilateral GPi or STN stimulators. Patients and evaluating clinicians were blinded to stimulation site. All patients were tested preoperatively while taking and not taking medications and after 3, 6, and 12 months of DBS. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Postoperatively, response of symptoms to DBS, medication, and combined medication and DBS was evaluated. Twenty patients (10 in the GPi group and 10 in the STN group) completed 12-month follow-up. RESULTS: Off-medication Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale motor scores were improved after 12 months of both GPi and STN stimulation (39% vs 48%). Bradykinesia tended to improve more with STN than GPi stimulation. No improvement in on-medication function was observed in either group. Levodopa dose was reduced by 38% in STN stimulation patients compared with 3% in GPi stimulation patients (P = .08). Dyskinesia was reduced by stimulation at both GPi and STN (89% vs 62%). Cognitive and behavioral complications were observed only in combination with STN stimulation. CONCLUSION: Stimulation of either the GPi or STN improves many features of advanced PD. It is premature to exclude GPi as an appropriate target for DBS in patients with advanced disease. 相似文献

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) can be a highly effective treatment for Parkinson's disease (PD). However, therapeutic efficacy is limited by difficulties in consistently and correctly targeting this nucleus. Increasing evidence suggests that there is abnormal synchronization of beta frequency band activity (approximately 20 Hz) in the STN of PD patients, as reflected in the oscillatory nature of the local field potential (LFP). We hypothesized that an increase in the power of the LFP beta activity may provide intra-operative confirmation of STN targeting in patients undergoing STN implantation for the treatment of advanced PD. Accordingly, we recorded LFPs from the four contacts of DBS electrodes as the latter were advanced in 2 mm steps from a point 4-6 mm above the intended surgical target point in the STN, to a point 4 mm below this. Contacts were configured to give three bipolar recordings of LFPs. These were analyzed on 16 sides in 9 patients. The power in the 13-35 Hz band recorded at the lowest contact pair underwent a steep but focal increase during electrode descent. The depth of the peak beta activity showed excellent agreement with the level of the intra-operative clinical stun effect (k coefficient = 0.792). The depth of peak beta activity also showed 100% specificity and 100% sensitivity for placement within STN in comparison to pre- and Post-operative stereotactic MRI. Functional physiological localization of STN by the on-line spectral analysis of LFPs is quick to perform and may provide information directly relevant to the position of the electrode contact actually used for DBS. 相似文献
