abstract = {Background and Study Aims The use of multiple
trajectories microelectrode recording (MER) during
implantation of deep brain stimulation (DBS) electrodes into
the subthalamic nucleus (STN) in patients with Parkinson's
disease (PD) is discussed controversially because of
possible risks and unclear benefits. The aim of the study is
to investigate whether MER combined with intraoperative
evaluation of stimulation effects improve clinical outcome
in PD patients undergoing STN DBS surgery.Material and
Methods Prior to final DBS electrode implantation, we
performed multiple trajectories MER and intraoperative test
stimulations after magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided
planning in 32 PD patients. In further 10 patients no MER
(only intraoperative test stimulation) was used.Results We
found a significantly better clinical outcome (Unified
Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale [UPDRS] III) in patients
undergoing MER compared with non-MER patients. In MER
patients, DBS electrode placement was performed using the
central trajectory in $73\%.$ Another than the central
trajectory was taken in $27\%$ of the patients. No
difference in clinical outcome between DBS electrodes
implanted on the central or a decentral trajectory was
observed.Conclusions DBS surgery based on intraoperative
multiple trajectories MER and test stimulation improves
clinical outcome if compared with intraoperative test
stimulation alone. The data suggest that DBS surgery solely
based on MRI and intraoperative test stimulation without MER
may lead to nonoptimal placement of DBS electrodes and
consequently poorer clinical outcome.},
