The Intraoperative Microlesion Effect Positively Correlates With the Short‐Term Clinical Effect of Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesNeuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objective During the surgical procedure of deep brain stimulation (DBS), insertion of an electrode in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) frequently causes a temporary improvement of motor symptoms, known as the microlesion effect (MLE). The objective of this study was to determine the correlation between the intraoperative MLE and the clinical ...
