High frequency electrical stimulation by means of electrodes implanted into the brain (deep brain stimulation; DBS) recently has become an accepted technique for the treatment of several movement disorders and in particular for Parkinson's disease. Because the effects produced by DBS are similar to

The mechanism of action of high frequency deep brain stimulation is still unknown. However, in all circumstances and in all target nuclei so far stimulated, the effects mimic those of lesions previously made during thalamotomies, pallidotomies or even subthalamotomies, suggesting an inhibition of at

## Abstract Pathological crying (PLC)—an affective gesture without any or an adequate emotion—occurs with various diseases. A recent theory suggests that PLC is caused by a disruption of higher order cortical association areas from the cerebellum which computes profiles of psychomotor responses. We

Currently, DBS is a commonly performed surgery for treatment of movement disorders, especially Parkinson's disease. Although nonablative and minimally invasive, this procedure may give rise to many complications and side effects, some of which are neither reversible nor adaptable. This study reviews
