From Selective Thalamotomy with Microrecording to Gamma Thalamotomy for Movement Disorders
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 2006A theoretical and practical process from microrecording-guided thalamotomy to gamma knife thalamotomy was briefly reviewed. Based on our own experiences of selective thalamotomy with microrecording, we are trying to apply gamma knife to the treatment of movement disorders. An important technical problem is how to determine the exact thalamic target. At

Thalamotomy for Movement Disorders
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1995VL thalamotomy is an excellent choice for the control of tremor in patients with a wide variety of disorders. Parkinson's disease and essential tremor are the best indications, but other disorders also respond. Improvement of bradykinesia and rigidity in Parkinson's disease is achievable but is not as dramatic as hyperkinetic symptoms.

Hemiballismus Complicating Stereotactic Thalamotomy
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1979The pathology of poststereotactic hyperkinesis has been rarely documented and the pathophysiology is still poorly understood. In a case of hemiballismus following thalamotomy for parkinsonism, detailed anatomical studies showed bilateral cortical pseudolaminar necrosis and no involvement of the subthalamic nuclei by the thalamic lesions. The structural

The terrible disability inflicted by primary and secondary dystonia inspired surgical intervention in attempts to modify the associated movement disorders that strike previously normal patients out of the blue in the case of primary dystonia, or that are superimposed on a pre-existing neurological deficit in the case of secondary dystonia.

Selective Thalamotomy and Gamma Thalamotomy for Parkinson Disease
2009Since the first edition of this book, stereotactic surgery has changed considerably, because of the rapid progress in computerized imaging systems and neuroscience. Technically, one of the most remarkable changes is the development of deep brain stimulation (DBS) initiated in 1996 [1] and used all over the world now.

Ventral Intermediate Thalamotomy for Hemiballismus
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1995Stereotactic thalamotomy in an unusual case of hemiballismus is reported. This 13-year-old female developed constant left upper and lower extremity flinging movements shortly after cardiac bypass surgery for congenital heart disease at the age of 8.

The Place of Thalamotomy in the Treatment of Parkinsonism
British Journal of Neurosurgery, 1987L-Dopa therapy, like thalamotomy, is capable of suppressing some of the symptoms of Parkinsonism but is not a cure. The side effects of L-Dopa therapy can prove as incapacitating as the original symptoms of Parkinsonism. There remains a place for thalamotomy in the treatment of selected cases where symptoms are mainly localised, particularly to the non-

VOI Thalamotomy in Spasmodic Torticollis
Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 1980We performed stereotactic VOI thalamotomy as the only surgical treatment in spasmodic torticollis in 17 patients since 1972. The patients selected for surgery mainly presented horizontal torticollis. All the patients improved after unilateral thalamotomy. In most cases there was a delay in improvement varying from 3 months to 2–3 years postoperatively.
