Both pallidotomy and deep brain stimulation (DBS) have been proven to be effective in suppressing levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID). The effects of pallidal stereotactic surgery on parkinsonian features have, however, been less consistent. To supplement existing knowledge of globus pallidus (GP) p
## Abstract Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) accelerates reaction time (RT) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), particularly in tasks in which decisions on the response side have to be made. This might indicate that DBS speeds up both motor and nonmotor operation
## Abstract In Parkinson's disease, dopamine dysregulation syndrome (DDS) is characterized by severe dopamine addiction and behavioral disorders such as manic psychosis, hypersexuality, pathological gambling, and mood swings. Here, we describe the case of 2 young parkinsonian patients suffering fro
Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus is an accepted treatment for the motor complications of Parkinson's disease. The therapeutic mechanism of action remains incompletely understood. Although the results of deep brain stimulation are similar to the results that can be obtained by lesion
We have read with interest the study by Santangelo et al., 1 reporting the role of vascular pathology in the neuropsychological profile of parkinsonian patients. The authors evaluated whether the brain's vascular lesion load is associated with neuropsychological variables. They compared the neuropsy
