summary

The effect of Parkinson's surgery? Microelectrode guided stereotactic brain surgery, commonly known as "cell knife", is currently recognized as a good method for the treatment of Parkinson's disease in the world.

The effect of Parkinson's surgery

First, Parkinson's disease is a common nervous system disease in the middle-aged and elderly, with three main manifestations: limb tremor, limb stiffness, and motor retardation. Parkinson's disease is a degeneration of the substantia nigra and striatum in the brain, which leads to the decrease of dopamine production.

Second, early treatment of Parkinson's disease is mainly drug-based. Non dopaminergic drugs such as amantadine and antam can be used in the early stage. If the expected goal is not achieved or the symptoms worsen after the above drug treatment, two kinds of drug treatment should be considered: ① dopamine receptor agonists, such as senfro, teshuda, etc.; ② dopamines, such as Madopa, cinnabarin, etc.

Third: with the development of stereotactic technology, high safety surgery provides an alternative treatment for those patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, which is "microelectrode guided brain stereotactic surgery", commonly known as "cell knife". More than 90% of Parkinson's symptoms can be relieved by operation.

matters needing attention

Generally speaking, patients with early Parkinson's disease will first take drug treatment. After a period of time, the effect will decline or toxic and side effects will appear, and the disease will become more difficult to control. At this time, surgical treatment should be actively considered.
