## Abstract Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective therapy for advanced Parkinson's disease patients. Successful DBS outcomes depend on appropriate patient selection, surgical placement of the lead, intact hardware systems, optimal programming, and medical management. Despite its importance,

Deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the subthalamic nucleus (STN) or the globus pallidus pars interior (GPi) represents one of the major therapeutic breakthroughs in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite the complexity of the procedure, the need to integrate a team of neurologists, n
## Abstract Thalamic deep brain stimulation (DBS) is proven to suppress tremor in Parkinson's disease (PD) and essential tremor (ET). However, there are few reports on its longβterm efficacy. We studied the efficacy of DBS at 2 years and 6β7 years after electrode implantations in the ventrointermed
## Abstract Deep brain stimulation of the globus pallidus internus (GPi DBS) is effective in the treatment of primary segmental and generalized dystonia. Although limb, neck, or truncal dystonia are markedly improved, orofacial dystonia is ameliorated to a lesser extent. Nevertheless, several case
