## Abstract Our objective was to investigate the long‐term safety and efficacy of unilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the VIM nucleus of the thalamus in essential tremor. Forty‐nine patients were evaluated for DBS between December 1993 and March 1998. Tremor was assessed by a clinical rating
