Stereotactic ventral pallidotomy for Parkinson's disease

Article abstract-Eighteen patients with medically intractable Parkinson's disease that was characterized by bradykinesia, rigidity, and marked "on-off" fluctuations underwent stereotactic ventral pallidotomy under local anesthesia. Targeting was aided by anatomic coordinates derived from the MRI, intraoperative cell recordings, and electrical stimulation prior to lesioning. A nonsurgically treated group of seven similarly affected individuals was also followed. Assessment of motor function was made at baseline and at 3-month intervals for 1 year. Following the lesioning, patients improved in bradykinesia, rigidity, resting tremor, and balance with resolution of medication-induced contralateral dyskinesia. When compared with preoperative baseline, all quantifiable test scores after surgery improved significantly with the patients off medications for 12 hours: UPDRS by 65%, and CAPIT subtest scores on the contralateral limb by 38.2% and the ipsilateral limb by 24.2%. Walk scores improved by 45%. Medication requirements were unchanged, but the patients who had had surgery were able to tolerate larger doses because of reduced dyskinesia. Ventral pallidotomy produces statistically significant reduction in parkinsonism and contralateral "on" dyskinesia without morbidity or mortality and with a short hospitalization in Parkinson's disease patients for whom medical therapy has failed.
