Stereotactic thalamotomy was performed in ten patients with Parkinson's disease for the suppression of their tremor. After VL-thalamotomy, contralateral tremor and rigidity disappeared or was significantly reduced. Activities of daily living (ADL) measured by functional independence measure and Parkinson's disability score were improved postoperatively in all patients. There was significant improvement in anxiety index. However, other neuropsychological tests showed no significant change postoperatively. ADL improved after thalamotomy. It is concluded that stereotactic VL-thalamotomy is a useful treatment which improves ADL without cognitive dysfunction.
