abstract = {BackgroundPallidal deep brain stimulation (GPi-DBS)
effectively ameliorates idiopathic dystonia, although
approximately $15\%$ of patients respond insufficiently.
Although various thalamic and subthalamic targets have been
suggested for dystonic tremor, no systematic studies have
been published on thalamic DBS in dystonic tremor. We
assessed the effect of thalamic/subthalamic area DBS
(Th-DBS) on dystonic head tremor and dystonia in a
single-blind design.MethodsDystonic head tremor and dystonia
before and 3 months after surgery were quantified via
blinded video-ratings using the
Fahn-Tolosa-Marin-Tremor-Scale and the
Burke-Fahn-Marsden-Dystonia-Rating-Scale in seven patients
with idiopathic cervical or segmental dystonia, dystonic
head tremor, and bilateral Th-DBS. Pain, side effects,
adverse events, and stimulation parameters were
assessed.ResultsTh-DBS improved dystonic tremor and dystonia
(P < 0.05; $57.1\%$ and $70.4\%,$ respectively). Head
tremor amplitude and pain were also improved (P < 0.05;
$77.5\%$ and $90.0\%,$ respectively). Side effects included
dysarthria, gait disturbance, slowness of movement, and
weight gain.ConclusionDystonic head tremor and dystonia can
be improved with Th-DBS.},
