Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Neurology
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a key treatment for advanced Parkinson's disease.
  • Optimal patient selection, targeting, and stimulation are crucial for successful outcomes.

Observation:

  • A 68-year-old male experienced intracerebral hemorrhage, cognitive decline, and seizures post-bilateral STN DBS.
  • These severe complications occurred in the early postoperative period.

Findings:

  • Despite being minimally invasive, STN DBS surgery carries significant risks and potential for serious side effects.
  • The presented case underscores the potential for severe adverse events following STN DBS.

Implications:
