pubmed:abstractText |
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder that becomes refractory to medication as the disease progresses. Although in the past 5 years increasing numbers of patients have undergone stereotactically guided posteroventral pallidotomy for advanced PD, the safety and efficacy of surgery remains to be documented. The goal in this study was to determine the potential operative morbidity and types of functional outcomes by using validated PD rating scales and a patient survey.
