Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting motor function.
  • Current treatments, including medication, may become less effective over time, leading to patient dissatisfaction.
  • Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an established neurosurgical intervention for advanced PD.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the patient's experience with deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease.
  • To report on the stereotactic procedure and the subsequent subjective outcomes.
  • To evaluate the long-term efficacy and challenges associated with DBS treatment.

Main Methods:

  • A case report detailing a patient's journey with Parkinson's disease.
  • Description of the stereotactic neurosurgical procedure for DBS implantation.
  • Longitudinal follow-up of patient-reported symptoms and treatment effects.

Main Results:

  • Initial euphoria and significant symptom relief were reported post-DBS.
  • The patient experienced fluctuations in benefit and challenges over ten years.
  • The long-term impact on quality of life and the concept of feeling "bionic" were explored.

Conclusions:

  • Deep brain stimulation can provide substantial benefits for Parkinson's disease patients.
  • Long-term management of DBS requires ongoing monitoring and adjustment.
  • Patient-reported outcomes are crucial in evaluating the success of neurosurgical interventions.
