Safety and efficacy of pallidal or subthalamic nucleus stimulation in advanced PD

J. Volkmann, MD;, N. Allert, MD;, J. Voges, MD;, P. H. Weiss, MD;, H.-J. Freund, MD; and V. Sturm, MD

From the Department of Neurology (Drs. Volkmann, Allert, Weiss, and Freund), Heinrich-Heine-University, Düsseldorf; Department of Stereotaxy and Functional Neurosurgery (Dr. Sturm), University of Cologne; and IME (Dr. Weiss), Forschungszentrum Jülich, Germany

The authors retrospectively compared 1-year results of bilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN; n = 16) and internal pallidum (GPi) (n = 11) in advanced PD and found about equal improvements in "off" period motor symptoms, dyskinesias, and fluctuations. STN stimulation reduced medication requirements by 65% and required significantly less electrical power. These advantages contrasted with a need for more intensive postoperative monitoring and a higher incidence of adverse events related to levodopa withdrawal.
